Heartbreak to Hope Walk 2025

My Activity Tracking

kms

My target 100 kms

Support my challenge for kids facing cancer.

Every month in Australia, 90 children are diagnosed with cancer. 

For those families, their lives are changed forever. Cancer puts families under enormous pressure. It can feel like it’s impossible to hold it together.

This May, I am taking part in the Heartbreak to Hope Walk to raise funds for Redkite to provide emotional, financial and practical support and care to families facing childhood cancer.

Please sponsor me by making a donation to support my walk. 

Together, we can show these children and their families that they don't have to face cancer alone and support them as they face the toughest time of their lives.

Thank you.

From heartbreak to hope

Thursday 17th Apr

As a mum, my heart breaks for every family who hears the words no parent should ever hear — “your child has cancer.”


I walk with purpose this May, taking each step in honour of the brave little warriors fighting battles no child should face. I walk for the parents who sit beside hospital beds, for the siblings who miss their best mates, and for the children who show more courage in a day than most of us do in a lifetime.


If I could take away their pain, I would. If I could heal them all, I’d do it in a heartbeat.


But while I can’t do that, I can do this — walk, raise funds, and stand up for hope. Because every dollar raised helps fund research, support families, and bring us closer to a future where no child faces cancer alone.


From one parent’s heart to another — I’m walking for them all.


With love and hope,

Mehrsa
