I am competing in Battle for Life to raise funds for Anahera O Te Rangi Trust and to celebrate the life of Patrick O’Brien

Hawke's Bay

Battle for Life’s 10th anniversary is dedicated to “Celebrating a Champ - Inspiring Change.” Remembering event founder Patrick O’Brien and the kaupapa that he championed his entire life before it was tragically shortened, inspiring positive social change in our community.

This 10th anniversary of Battle for Life an ambitious fundraising goal of $50,000 has been set. As always this money will be dispersed through Anahera o Te Rangi Charitable Trust to programmes and initiatives that help save lives, build resilience and give people hope here in Hawke’s Bay.

“We acknowledge life can be a battle

Each day we are faced by challenges. We go through hardship, we experience struggle. We acknowledge and accept these things because after every dark night comes the light of day.” Patrick O’Brien.

Together we can exceed this goal. Please give generously.
