In memory of Hayley - running for mental health

Fundraising for I Am Hope Foundation

Wellington

On 30 July 2025, we lost our beautiful Hayley after her courageous battle with mental health. She was just 20 years old, full of life, and loved deeply by her family and friends.

On 17 January 2026, some of Hayley’s family will run a half marathon (21 km) in her memory. This date is especially meaningful because it falls on the weekend of what would have been her 21st birthday on 18 January 2026.

We’re running to honor Hayley’s life and to raise awareness and funds for mental health support—so that others can get the help they need before it’s too late. Every step we take is for Hayley and for everyone who is fighting their own battle.

Your support means the world to us. Together, we can make a difference.
