Liam Keegan, Marlborough Boys’ College Head Boy - Drop for Youth 2022

I am dropping for youth! Helping Marlborough’s young people discover what they have inside is greater than any obstacle, including jumping out of a plane.

I'm a true believer in the work that Graeme Dingle Foundation Marlborough do with the young people in our region which positively impacts over 50% of Marlborough kids every week. Definitely something worth jumping out of a plane for! I am representing Marlborough Boys' College as the Head Boy for 2022. At the college we have the vision for everyone to "Be the best you can be" so I think it is only fitting that I get involved in making a difference to the lives of youth in our community so they can become the best versions of themselves.

My fundraising goal is set at $1000, and if I can reach this before May 28th I will be skydiving from 9,000 feet as part of drop day. Jumping out of a plane is something I never thought I would find myself doing but when I heard about this campaign I thought this would be a good opportunity for me to step out of my comfort zone and develop myself as a person. But more importantly, it is about raising money for the Graeme Dingle Foundation to help other tamariki and rangatahi on their transformational journeys.

All donations big or small are greatly appreciated and will be used to cover programme delivery costs within the Marlborough region.
