WOW! We are truly fortunate to have such an incredible community. The HBF Run for a Reason in 2024 was a phenomenal event, bringing together our FWF research team, burn survivors, their families, and community supporters to rally for burn patients.
Our team, the FWF Cool Runnings, together with all those who chose us for their reason, raised an outstanding $11,000! Thanks to your efforts, we were able to fulfill the wish lists for the Physiotherapy and occupational therapists burns team at Fiona Stanley Hospital. The items purchased directly enhance our patients' functional recovery and rehabilitation, making a tangible and significant difference in their healing journey.
HBF Team Spotlight:
Adele and the Not So Slow Burners!
As a cherished member of our burns family, Adele bravely faced the challenge of walking the 4km to mark her second 'burn-anniversary' after sustaining an injury from an ethanol fire. We're incredibly proud to see her reach this significant milestone in her recovery. It was truly inspiring to see Adele's entire support network come together, choosing to support our cause and making a profound impact. Thank you all for being such an integral part of our community and extended burns family.
Frances our #1 HBF Fundraiser!
Frances chose us as her reason in support of her father, Tim, who was injured in a harvest fire at the end of 2023. Frances alone raised an impressive $5,000! Pictured is Frances's dad, Tim, testing out his new tennis racquet. We know that that the ripple effect of a burn injury extends far beyond the individual and we are humbled by the ongoing support of our patients family and networks.
On behalf of Foundation and the FSH burns clinic OT'S and physio team we would like to say a HUGE thank you to everyone involved – whether you took part, made donations, or cheered us on. We genuinely appreciate the community spirit that has blossomed from this year's event.
