The Elsa Corp Project (supporting The Friends of Butoke Charity) was created by a very special family that I have the privilege to call my friends. I met them in February 2010 when their beautiful Elsa was tragically taken from them by a man she met on a blind date. I was the lead investigator and have been in touch with Andy, Gilly & Danny ever since.

Though a tragedy that will never be forgotten, it enabled me to meet three very special people. In 2021 in Elsa's honour the family began a project to raise funds for this very worthwhile charity. It is a UK charity to help girls who have been victims of sexual assault in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Over the past 5 years they have raised over $26,500 AUD, 100% of which has gone to 32 girls for medical treatment, food, clothing, and legal fees to prosecute their attackers. In 2025, they helped another 6 girls, but sadly there are many more who need assistance. My aim is to assist the Corp family in raising $5000 AUD to go to the Elsa Corp Project.

As my part of the fundraising efforts, I will be running 200km in the month of February (average 7.2km per day) and completing over 600,000 steps. Our two new rescue dogs (Ed & Zazu) should make this an easy task!! I hope that you will consider assisting me in my efforts to raise funds for this very noble cause.
