Auckland

I'm wearing a Blindfold all day on July 23rd and undertaking several challenges to get a glimpse of what it might be like to suddenly lose my sight.

Jess Samson's involvement (page creator)

As a leader in St John, I believe strongly in the work of the Eye Hospital. Their mission - to treat anyone regardless of race or religion - is both inspiring and necessary. The Hospital need funds for crucial equipment to perform operations that save people's eyesight.

By fundraising for this equipment, I also hope to connect this modern generation of Youth cadets to the history of the organisation and our roots in Jerusalem.
