We’re excited to announce the much-loved Red Wig Challenge is back for another year.
The virtual walk, run, ride or glide was a huge success last year, so we are doing it all again. This November we are asking people from Canberra and across the surrounding area of NSW to join in by choosing to ride, walk, run, or glide your way towards your pre-determined number of kilometres and #gothedistance!
This year we would like to raise at least $50,000 which will pay for almost 380 nights of accommodation to support families from across the ACT and South East NSW when their world has been turned upside down with a sick child in hospital. Once registered, you will be sent your very own red wig and you can start clocking up the kilometres. Individual and team entrants can share photos on their socials so friends and family can help them achieve their fundraising goals and #gothedistance.
Get outside this November for a fun and fit month of walking, running, riding or gliding to raise much needed funds to help care for families of sick children. You can go solo, do it with your family, get a team together or challenge your workmates to get up and #gothedistance.
By providing a home away from home, Ronald McDonald Houses help families stay close together at one of the toughest times in their lives.
Ronald McDonald House in Canberra is situated on level 2 of the Centenary Hospital for Women and Children in Garran and supports on average 30 families each month with accommodation. Our Family Room received an average of 900 visits per month and our Family Retreat can support up to 8 families per month. Help us achieve our fundraising target which will allow us to continue to support these families that use our programs. #gothedistance.
