Reach the Peak for Healthier Teeth - Cintia and Andre Schertel
Reach the Peak for Healthier Teeth - Cintia and Andre Schertel
Story
Hi there!
There are 1,920 children with congenital heart disease born in Australia annually, and the total number of Australian children with this condition aged 0-18 is estimated at 34,560.
Dental diseases pose high risks for children with heart conditions, as the bacteria involved have direct and drastic implications for the treatment of cardiac conditions and can be life-threatening.
Almost 50% of children with heart disease have their surgery delayed, as their dental treatment needs to be managed first.
eviDent supported research aims to give these children better access to care.
At the moment, this project is running with kind support from various sources, including the University of Melbourne and Murdoch Children’s Research Institute, but more is needed.
In April 2022, we will be Reaching the Peak for Healthier Teeth - hiking unassisted up the Grampians on a 38km course - to raise much-needed funds and create awareness of the eviDent Foundation.
This will be Cintia’s longest and hilliest hiking adventure to date – and Andre promised he will carry all of the heavy gear himself!
I’m hoping you can help us by supporting this incredible challenge by donating to help us reach my fundraising target.
We appreciate any contribution, big or small!
Donations made through this platform are secure and will be remitted directly through to eviDent.
Thanks so much for your support!
Cintia and Andre Schertel
