Maria Papasergi

Every year I say it might be the year I hang up my boots, and retire from this event.
But to do that would be to give up, and giving up is not in my nature.
As long as there is a need I'll keep on giving my best.

There are many reasons why I keep on doing this event, but most importantly, it is the faces of the young people we help that keeps me going. The hope we inspire. And the fact that by never giving up, we may be able to teach others to never give up, to keep hoping for the best, to keep striving towards a future.
Our young people deserve a right to education, to employment, to a house, to a meal. To live a safe life, not a life of uncertainty on the streets.

Please join us, support us. We just want to build a better world for our young people.

This year our participants will be climbing three mountains, Mt Tennent, Mt Kosciousko, and Mt Bogong in the space of 33 hours.
Again, I'll be helping to guide these teams to the finish line.
The hardship we face in this event, is absolutely nothing compared to the hardships our homeless and at risk young people endure.
Ours will end in 33 hours, their's may go on, unless somehow they get the support they need.
Help us help them, in any way you can.
If you can give in any way, please do. If not to us, then to the many other causes that need our help.
Thank you once again in previous years to everyone that supported me, and now for taking the time to read and listen to me.
It is so much appreciated!
