Ziggy's Team

The Bloody Long Walk 2024 - Brisbane

We're walking 35km in The Bloody Long Walk for Ziggy!

We're gearing up for a monumental journey - a 35km trek in The Bloody Long Walk to support The Mito Foundation and Australians battling mitochondrial disease.

This cause hits close to home for us. Our little warrior, Ziggy, was diagnosed with Pearsons Syndrome, a form of mitochondrial disease, at just 4 months old. Despite the challenges he faces, Ziggy's spirit shines bright. He's our cheeky, bossy, and endlessly lovable toddler who inspires us every day.

Mitochondrial disease comes in many forms, affecting people of all ages. It strips the body's cells of energy, leading to organ dysfunction or failure. The reality is harsh, but we're determined to make a difference.

As we lace up our shoes and embark on this grueling journey, we know it's nothing compared to the daily battles fought by those with mito. That's why we're asking for your support.

By sponsoring our walk, you're contributing to vital research for treatments and cures. Every dollar counts and brings us closer to a brighter future for those affected by this devastating disease.

Join us in making a difference. Together, we can give hope and support to those in need.

Thank you for your generosity and unwavering support! 🙏💚

If you would like to take on the challenge and walk with us, please do, JOIN ZIGGYS TEAM!!! X
