Hi there,

I have decided to make a difference by creating my very own fundraising appeal for Interplast Australia & New Zealand. 

By joining Turia’s Mount Everest Trek in 2017, I will help Interplast repair bodies and rebuild lives throughout the Asia Pacific region. For decades, Interplast has worked on the ground in some of the world’s poorest countries to provide free surgical treatment and facilitate safe, healthier and more sustainable healthcare initiatives. 

With our support, Interplast's teams of volunteer plastic and reconstructive surgeons, anaesthetists, nurses and allied health professionals can continue to provide free surgical treatment to patients living with treatable disabilities such as cleft lip and palate, burn scars and severe hand injuries. The funds I raise as part of this incredible adventure will also enable Interplast to train the next generation of surgical leaders in the countries in which they work. Through education, training and mentoring programs we empower local medical personnel to perform life-saving procedures independently.

The trek to Mount Everest Base Camp will be mentally and physically challenging, but with your support I know I can achieve this monumental goal. Click 'Donate Now' to make a secure online donation, and help me in my mission to change not only my life, but the lives of thousands in the Asia Pacific region. All donations over $2 are tax deductible and you will be issued with a DGR receipt via email as soon as you make a donation.

Thanks so much for helping me reach my target!
