Support my challenge to Step Up to Breast Cancer!

Right now, 56 people in Australia are diagnosed with breast cancer every day.

This August, I am taking part in Step Up to Breast Cancer for the mothers, sisters, daughters, friends and loves ones who are impacted by this devastating disease.

I am doing this to raise funds for National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF) to support vital breast cancer research to help save lives.

Please make a donation to support my challenge and let's step up to breast cancer together!

Thank you for your support.

It’s cold and wet but i still got some kms

Monday 10th Aug
Today was too cold and wet for me to walk so the exercise bike it was. Over 6km on the bike taking my total to 26km. Feeling good!

Day 5

Friday 7th Aug
🩷 DAY 5 UPDATE 🩷 Day 5 and I’ve just ticked over 13km and together we’ve already raised an amazing $540! 🎉 I am so incredibly grateful to everyone who has donated so far. Every single donation, no matter the amount, means so much. 🩷 In just the 5 days since August began, around 280 people in Australia have been diagnosed with breast cancer. That number really puts into perspective why fundraising and supporting breast cancer research is so important. If you can spare a few dollars, I would be so grateful for your support. And if donating isn’t possible, sharing my fundraiser on your wall helps too — it might reach someone who can. 🩷 Thank you to everyone who has donated, shared or cheered me on so far. I’ve still got plenty of kilometres ahead of me! 👟💕 https://fundraise.nbcf.org.au/fundraisers/melaniepreston-reid/step-up #StepUp #BreastCancerResearch #NBCF #Fundraising #EveryStepCounts

1st walk done

Friday 7th Aug
1st walk of the month done! 2.5km done and $292 raised so far! A massive thank you to everyone who has donated already - I really appreciate it. I’m taking on 56+ km to raise funds for the 56 Australians diagnosed with breast cancer each day. $56 could help fund researchers to develop training tools for radiologists to improve the accuracy of breast cancer screenings & I’d be so grateful if you could support me with a donation to my page: https://fundraise.nbcf.org.au/fundraisers/melaniepreston-reid/step-up

One week until start time

Friday 24th Jul
With just over a week until I start this challenge I thought I would say a big thank you to those who have already donated. It means a lot. I will be walking or riding 56km for the month of August and if i make the 56km quickly I’ll increase the target km. Hoping for some beautiful weather to walk in but as farmers we need the rain so I have my exercise bike ready to jump on and ride out some KM.

Thank you to my Sponsors
