I am fundraising for..
In March 2023 I had the shock diagnosis of Gallbladder Cancer after a routine trip to donate blood. Two surgeries later, 8 rounds of oral chemo, I was given the all clear, only to find in February 2024 it was back and into my liver this time. So back to more intensive chemotherapy and Immunotherapy. The Treatment is Working!!! Thanks to all the support and hard work of my oncology team and Rare Cancers Australia, my family and friends and of course my own stubbornness. So the challenge is on!!!
The Kosi Challenge is an annual event hosted by Rare Cancers Australia (RCA) to raise awareness and much-needed funds for Australians diagnosed with a rare, less common or complex cancer each year.
In March 2025, I will be climbing 2,228 metres above sea level to reach Australia’s highest point to help RCA.
One hundred per cent of funds raised through the Kosi Challenge goes towards the important work of RCA's Patient Support Team.
From helping patients to access specialists and treatments, through to delivering support groups, connecting people with services and providing financial assistance particularly in times of crisis, Patient Support is at the heart of what RCA does.
RCA is a Federal Government-classified Health Promotion Charity. All donations over AU $2 are fully tax deductible.
Thank you so much for your support.

My Updates
Humbled to be Krawling
Not even a week into our Kosi Challenge, and our Team has raised $1942! Very very humbling to be sure!! We actually can't wait to take on Kosi, but there will be a bit of work to get there. I am also very fortunate to be sitting at an amazing campground in Mildura, remote working and working on our Challenge as well so thought after one report was finished, I would start our blog!My walking buddy Lilly and I walked from our campsite up into Mildura town centre today, approximately 8.2km return which took us 1.5hrs. Very very flat, but at least we were walking, and it was a gorgeous and cool morning, so great to be out and about. Every km counts right??!!
Much love to all!
Kerri's Krawlers :)
