Champion Of Hope Fun Run - Catherine Freeman Foundation - Charity Events

Message from Catherine Freeman

I established the Catherine Freeman Foundation to inspire Indigenous children in Australia to realise their potential.

At CFF, we do this by creating educational opportunities to empower individuals for positive change. You can help these children by hosting a Fun Run at your school.

Money raised will go directly toward education and well-being programs on Palm Island. Please join me as a Champion of Hope!

In celebration of the 10-year anniversary of Cathy Freeman's Gold Medal at the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games, the Catherine Freeman Foundation (CFF) is launching its inaugural Champion of Hope Fun Run to promote active and healthy lifestyles among all Australian children. Join with kids from Palm Island and across Australia by hosting a fun run at your school. Get creative and submit a poster designed by your students and your school could be in the running to win great prizes! But most importantly, funds raised by your school will help kids on Palm Island have a better future. Make sure you register now!

"The Foundation provides opportunities to the kids on Palm Island that otherwise may not have been possible. I fully support them in their cause and encourage all young Aussies to get involved in the Fun Run."
