My Red Socks Challenge for Kidney Health

People on dialysis spend around 60 hours every month connected to a machine.

This October, I have
committed to the Red Socks Challenge, to stand with Australians living with kidney disease. 
 

I will be taking on 60km in October to honour the hours spent on dialysis - raising awareness and helping fund better care.

Please donate to support a better future for people with kidney disease.

Time to Kick Our Beans Into Gear!

Thursday 24th Sep

So… the Keen Beans are walking 100km for kidney health over October  🥾💚

This one is pretty personal for me. I’ve lived with SLE since I was 11, later developed lupus nephritis, and also have Type 1 diabetes, so kidney health has been a big part of my life.

I’m incredibly lucky to have an absolute wizard of a Professor and an amazing team at Westmead looking after me. 🧙‍♀️✨ Kidney complications have also affected people in my family, so this cause means a lot to me.

Our goal is to raise $2,000, with funds helping to support:

• 🔬 Kidney research and better treatments
• 💚 Support and education for people living with kidney disease
• 🩺 Better kidney health and outcomes for patients and families

If you can spare a few dollars, we’d absolutely love your support! Every donation, big or small, gets us closer to our goal. And if you can’t donate, sharing the fundraiser helps just as much. ❤️

And if the donations go well… I might just release my inner Forrest Gump and keep on running. 😂🏃‍♀️

Go Keen Beans! 🫘💚🥾
