Margie Galpin’s Tender Legacy
Out of the blue in August this year (2024) I was confronted with an advanced lung cancer diagnosis & the knowledge my time was limited. Overwhelmed and facing the devastating reality of saying goodbye to my loved ones I reached out to Tender Funerals. I have always lived my life authentically and by the philosophy to ‘keep things simple’. And I wanted my death to be the same; simple, joyful and representative of who I am. I first heard about Tender Funerals when it was featured on an episode of "Australian Story" (https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-06-16/a-community-undertaking/13932294) on the ABC and it really made an impact on me. To briefly sum it up, Tender is a community-based, not-for-profit funeral service that helps families to have an authentic and affordable funeral service without the ‘suits’ or going into large amounts of debt. Tender also offers community education and empowerment around death care (you can be more involved than you think!) as well as promoting environmentally sustainable death practices such as the use of shrouds and cardboard coffins. Tender Funerals is not yet operational in Geelong, but a small group of dedicated volunteers are in the process of making it happen. One beautiful volunteer in particular (Elizabeth) has been amazingly supportive; guiding me & my family to help me fulfil my end of life wishes. Tender Funerals are incorporated as a business and are registered as a charity. So please support their work and help bring this valuable service to our local community by donating to my Crowdraiser. I know they will appreciate every cent received and I'll be very grateful too. Through my story I hope to show people that death is simply a part of life, and that it can be a transformative, beautiful & deeply personal experience.

Rhys's Donate for Life campaign
Me, Rhys (17) school captain at St Ives High School and my Dad, Laurence Hibbert, have entered the 2024 Hawksbury Canoe Classic. Its a gruelling 111km overnight paddle down the Hawksbury River from Windsor to Mooney Mooney starting on Saturday 26th October. The annual Classic raises funds for the Arrow Bone Marrow Transplant Foundation. We are doing it because we are inspired by the Foundation's important work with stem cells. Stem cell transplants (also known as bone marrow transplants) are often the last treatment option for blood cancer patients of any age. I had blood cancer as an infant but luckily did not need a transplant but it was reassuring to know this life saving option was available to me. The Foundation funds important stem cell research and also advocates for greater funding of transpant services in our wonderful public hospitals. Please please support their work by donating to this important fundraising event and we will be very grateful for your contribution too! You can read more about the work of the Arrow Foundation here: https://arrow.org.au We would be very grateful for you to share the link to this Give Now page with your friends and family. The more people who can help the better and remember, blood cancer can affect anyone at any age including infants like I was. Thank you Rhys and Laurence

Giggle and Learn
We are inspired by the work River's Gift do in Stamping Out SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome). The impact they make in funding vital SIDS research, delivering infant safe sleep education and advocating for the infants and families affected by SIDS, is incredible. River's Gift are Australia's leading SIDS research funding organisation. Shine Blue 2024 marks the 13th anniversary of the passing of River Waddell to SIDS in November 2011. This campaign helps shine a spotlight on SIDS, a syndrome that isn't afforded anywhere near the attention and focus that it once was. In Australia each and every year, over 100 babies still lose their lives suddenly and unexpectedly in sleep. Our target for Shine Blue 2024 is $65,000 which will be channeled to the University of South Australia (UniSA), for the purpose of developing their unique SIDS biobank resource, and driving genetic research. Please support River's Gift's work by donating to our CrowdRaiser, as I know they will appreciate every cent received. And we will be very grateful for your contribution too!

Naomi Johnson - Hawkesbury Classic No. 6
This October 26th I'm lining up for my 6th Hawkesbury Canoe Classic - a 111km overnight kayaking ultramarathon that is as much a mental battle as a physical challenge. This year, I'm paddling an ocean racing ski (ORS1), and aiming to beat my own fastest women's time of 9:28:55 set in October 2019. The tides are looking good, and I plan to have plenty of kilometres under my belt by the time I get to the start line. With a start time of 4:20pm, my goal should see me finishing between 1:30 and 2am on Sunday! Alongside the thrill of racing, this event raises vital funds for Arrow Bone Marrow Transplant Foundation, helping to improve the lives of bone marrow transplant recipients through research and support networks. The photo below is of me leaving Wiseman's Ferry - the 60km checkpoint - in the 2023 race. It has just gone 10pm, and once I leave the checkpoint there will be little if any light. I will continue paddling for another three and a half hours. I might be a bit crazy in choosing to keep going, or at least relinquishing a hot drink in order to get the race done just that bit quicker. But it's crazy for a fabulous cause, and I hope that you will give generously because of that.
