Almost every time I tell people about my walks, I am asked the same thing, generally along the lines of:

"Am I opening up to community contributions, and putting them towards something?"

I have some things in the works right now, but they will take some time, and Id rather have them in a more concrete position before revealing them.

In the meantime, I would like to open up some crowdfunding to achieve those goals, as well as raise money for some Charities that are near and dear to me.

• 50% of funds raised will be forwarded to a rotation of Australian NFP Charities that I have personal experience with, or whose mission resonates with my health journey and recovery.

  • Charities on rotation:

    • Lifeline Australia

    • Healthy Hips Australia

    • Arthritis Australia

• 50% of funds will go back into Ben's Long Walk, assisting with travel costs, medical upkeep, food etc. But also going into a savings account for a special plan I have in the works.

  • myki credit / VLine Tickets

  • Fuel to starting points

  • Food

  • Shoes/straps/braces

*After Ko-Fi's standard 5% fee, 47.5% of contributions will be split between both avenues.
