Story
In the month of October I’m challenging myself to walk/run/ride 200km in order to raise money for The Christina Ghobadi Foundation (CGF). This beautiful charity helps improve the wellbeing of young people living with cancer by distributing wellness grants.
This has been an extremely challenging year, particularly for those who are immunocompromised or suppressed. Isolating from those we care about and having our usual coping strategies taken away from us has taken a toll on all of us this year, yet this is often what cancer patients have to deal with when undergoing chemotherapy or radiotherapy due to the effects of treatment on their immune system. Undergoing cancer treatment is hard as it is, especially during these current circumstances. Cancer is no stranger and is something that hits home for many of us, as majority of us all know someone who has been diagnosed.
This is why I'm taking part in the 2020 Walk for Wellbeing; an effort to raise money for the CGF in order to continue to support cancer patients in their mental wellbeing and wellness.
I am super grateful for any contribution, big or small! Every single dollar makes a huge difference! Donations made through this platform are secure and will be remitted directly to The Christina Ghobadi Foundation.
Thanks so much for your support! :)
Love, Jess.

The Christina Ghobadi Foundation (The Trustee for)
This October the Walk for Wellbeing Challenge is back! We are aiming to raise $15000 to support the wellbeing of young people living with and recovering from cancer.We are a registered charity that provides $500 wellness grants to 18-30 year olds living with or recovering from cancer living in Victoria. The grants are used for wellbeing related activities and products such as gym memberships, gym equipment, yoga classes, weekends away, instruments and art classes and materials. The foundation was established in 2015 in loving memory of Christina Ghobadi, who passed away at 27 years old from blood cancer leukaemia. Undergoing treatment is a challenging experience, making the need for care for wellbeing all the more important. We at The CG Foundation want all young people facing cancer to have the opportunity to strengthen their well-being during the healing process. Wellness is personal and needs to be practiced, that's why we offer grants for young people to access wellbeing activities of their choosing. To find out more about our work, head to our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/Cghobadifoundation and our Instagram page at @thechristinaghobadifoundation. All donations go directly towards funding the grants. We appreciate your support!
