We Have a Team Doing the Oxfam Trailwalker100!

So incase you dont know, the Oxfam Trailwalker challenge is a grueling challenge… 100km of bush to hike through… and our local team consisting of Sean, Phil, Pete and Brad (He’s a foreigner to all saints but a fellow christian none the less) is aiming to do it in 20 hours! No sleep for these boys…

Here’s what they have to say:

 

Teams of four enter this event and have 48 hours to walk or run the 100km trail, although our team is hoping to finish in about 20 hours. It’s very likely that we’ll walk through the night (with little or no sleep) until the end.

The event raises vital funds for Oxfam Australia. Oxfam is an independent, secular, non-government organisation working in more than 28 countries including Indigenous Australia.As part of the event, we’ll be walking 100km in under 48hrs. In actual fact, we’re aiming to achieve this feat in something closer to 20hrs!

Please visit our teams ‘Teamspace’ on the Oxfam website to donate. This link is below and the rest is pretty self explanatory.

By supporting Oxfam TRAILWALKER you are putting your foot down against poverty and injustice. The people you are helping don’t want to live on handouts. They want to lead dignified, independent lives. Your support gives them the chance to help themselves.

Your donation can help provide grain for families to grow eat and sell, or pay for a childs school fees who has been orphaned from their mother dying from HIV/AIDS.

So come on guys, dig deep, get behind our team and behind Oxfam.

Follow our progress on the Teamspace or on this group page and spread the word.

Its all about the difference YOU make.

Thanks everyone.
