Marcia Fisher - Drop Your Boss 2021

At the Graeme Dingle Foundation they believe "what you have on the inside is greater than any obstacle you may face". In the spirit of that ethos, I am making the leap, 12,000 feet out of a plane, to help raise money towards the incredible work the foundation does here in our own community.

The Graeme Dingle Foundation runs Project K, Kiwi Can, Career Navigator and Stars; reaching over 3,700 young people in the Western Bay of Plenty. These are all proven and successful school-based programmes that aim to inspire young people to reach their full potential by helping to build their self-esteem, promote good values and teach valuable life, education and health skills.

The Graeme Dingle Foundation is an incredible organisation, offering our young people some amazing opportunities to become the best version of themselves. Eastpack has been on board with the foundation providing support and funds for years, helping them continue their amazing mahi. We can see the positive impact their programmes have within the communities we are based in and are proud to be a part of their kaupapa.

On a more personal level, I am on a new health, fitness, and wellbeing journey and to be given the opportunity to raise funds to help our future generation as well as do something well out of my comfort zone is exciting and a bit scary... but I am definitely up for the challenge!

All the funds I raise through my efforts go directly to the foundation to help them continue their mahi. If I raise over $1000, Eastpack will match my efforts so help me get over that benchmark and double my contribution!

At Eastpack we are always looking for ways to make a positive impact in our community & my team think throwing me out of a plane for this good cause is well worth it! I know not all young people are given equal support and opportunity, and by jumping for Graeme Dingle Foundation I am contributing towards helping every child to reach their full potential and empowering them to create the future they want.

Help me support this critical work and donate to my skydive. Every bit helps!
