Rio’s Challenge Of Hope Around WA To Help Build State's First Children’s Hospice
Raising over $100k
Supplied
Have you heard about ‘Rio's Challenge of Hope’? Well you are about to!
Ryan Fowler is about to bike ride across the whole of WA to raise money for Perth’s Children Hospital Foundation.
From June 28 till July 16, Fowler will be riding a total of 1061kms and on a few days even riding over 100km!
But why is he doing this?
Right now, WA does not have a dedicated children’s hospice facility. In fact, there are only three dedicated children hospices in all of Australia.
The vision is to turn a respite centre for WA’s sickest children into a reality, with many services for them and their families.
Fowler is riding in honour of his beautiful son Rio, who had to undergo five major surgeries before finding out his condition was terminal.
He is hoping to show the nation, that none of these kid’s stories will be forgotten.
Please help support the thousands of people who will benefit from this new centre right here.
