KIDS FOUNDATION
On an average day in Australia, 5,000 children are injured and 100 children hospitalized. Together let’s make sure our kids never have an average day!

For the 5th consecutive year, KIDS Foundation is the nominated charity for the Panthers Australian Ironman Port Macquarie and now the Geelong 70.3. So why not put your training and effort towards a good cause and take part in ‘Doing it for KIDS’?

Doing it for KIDS Winner 2007 – George Mifsud of Cronulla
“In 2007 I competed in my 2nd Australian Ironman but this was the first year I participated in “Doing it for KIDS”. Being part of the DOING IT FOR KIDS Team made it a truly memorable and extra satisfying race. Meeting some of the KIDS from the Foundation and receiving the support from the amazing team at the Foundation as I went about raising money gave me an extra lift and motivation during my training. I urge you and recommend that you also raise money for DOING IT FOR KIDS and I am sure that you reap great personal satisfaction in addition to getting even greater support from your friends, work colleagues and family as you put in the hours and train for a really worthwhile cause.”
