Win's swim for a cause

By Winodh Jayewardene

Big thank you!

Big thank you to all that donated and helped me reach and exceed my target.  Was a great day and I managed to complete the 2 Kms in 45mins (was hoping to keep it under one hour initially!). 

Was a great day and great event, looking forward to doing it again next year (I think!).

I'm doing something sporty to support Mission Australia!

Almost every day I walk past someone on the street who doesn't have a home.  Little did I know that these people I see represent a fraction of those who are homeless.
 
Furthermore, Homelessness isn’t just old men sleeping rough in parks, it affects 105,000 people across the country every single night. Solving homelessness isn’t just about building more homes either.

Australians desperately need our support. 
 
So I'm getting fit by swimming 2 KMs on Saturday 20 January and raising money to support Mission Australia and I'd love your help.  If I reach my donation goal, the next swim will be longer so help me reach this goal (and watch me go through the pain of doing a longer swim!).
 
 

Please support me!
