Weʼve raised £1,575 to Raise money for Port Macquarie Koala Hospital to help all the koalas affected in the Australian bush fires
- Funded on Saturday, 9th May 2020
Don't have time to donate right now?
Story
Harry is 6 years old and his absolute favourite animal (along with penguins) is the koala. He has been really sad to see all the images of the bush fires in Australia and especially seeing all the injured koalas needing rescuing and caring for.
After initially asking if he could send his christmas money to the Koala hospital in Port Macquarie he then decided he could do a sponsored swim to raise as much money as he could.
Harry has recently been practising his distance swimming to pass a 50m test for his Surf Life Saving club but has decided he‘s going to try and swim 500 metres! This is going to be a huge challenge for him but before the end of January he is determined his going to complete it so any amount that you could donate to encourage Harry will be massively appreciated by us and the Koala Hospital.

4 years agoHarry is one very happy (and tired) boy. He swam 540metres in about half an hour. Big thank you to Watergate SLSC for letting him use a lane in his training session, James for swimming along side when he needed it and everyone who has supported him and donated.🐨

4 years agoThanks to everyone who’s donated so far. We have arranged for Harry to hopefully do his swim on Sunday 26th January. He’s very excited to do it and can’t wait to send all the money he raises to help the koalas as soon as possible x
