Asthma awareness challenge

$415 of $2,000 goal
Given by 17 generous donors in around 3 months

THE GOAL: to raise 2000 NZD to help CanBreahte to provide Asthma and COPD management education and support.

Christchurch, Canterbury

When I was a child, I used to imagine my Asthma as a giant grey smoky monster sucking all the air around whenever I practised any sport I loved, making every breath uneasy, making me gasp desperately for air on every single step. That is a feeling NOBODY should go through.

Respiratory therapies, GP follow-up, proper medications, and EDUCATION about Asthma and how to manage it are some of the elements that allowed me to practice sports like Zumba, Running, and Biking without the fear of suffering an asthma episode.

For that reason I am taking the challenge of running 30k weekly while collecting funds to help CanBreathe org on their mission to provide free asthma and COPD management education and support, breathing tests and consults.
