With walking being one of the few activities we could do during lockdown, the Insights team thought they would make their steps count!
Every day, two Australian families are given the heart-breaking news that their child has cancer, so they decided to take part in Camp Quality’s BIG Walk For Little Kids to raise money for kids with cancer. They set a goal to walk 1,000 kilometers as a team across the month of September and asked their friends, families and colleagues to sponsor them.
Across the month they encouraged each other to keep walking and were so grateful for all the donations they received towards this great cause.
There is still time to donate! Please visit our page to contribute.
Gareth Tomlin, General Manager, Data, Insights and Analytics, said:
“It’s been amazing seeing everyone’s generosity over the past month!
“Our walks are tiny compared to what the kids who attend Camp Quality go through every single day, and it’s so nice that during a pretty rough period for everyone we’ve been able to raise some money to make those kids’ year a bit brighter.”
Tsi Wei Yap, Senior Insights Analyst, said:
“Even though it’s the kids who will benefit from all the generous donations we have received so far, coming together for a great charity like Camp Quality has helped me push through lockdown in September.
“Encouraging and updating each other on our progress helped me stay connected with my teammates during this isolating time and it was such a good excuse to go for a walk each day. Thank you Manelle for organising and a big thank you to all those who have contributed!”
Manelle Nicholls, Insights Analyst, said:
“The team at Camp Quality do such a great job at supporting kids and their families during such a difficult time, and at bringing smiles and laughter to their lives. It was a pleasure to put in the steps every day to support the cause!”
Hannah Scott, Insights Manager, said:
“I’ve really enjoyed challenging myself this month with the big walk for little kids.”
“It’s been a great motivator to get moving during lockdown and it really brought our team together to support a fantastic cause!”
Henry Nguyen, Insights Analyst, said:
“Participating in the camp quality fundraiser was a great way for our team to get together to do something fun for a noble cause.”
