"Together we can find a cure...one step at a time"
Introduction
Hi I'm Wyatt. I'm now 11 years old and I was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis (CF) at 2 weeks old, through newborn screening. I have a rare gene combination and only share it with approximately 175 other people in world. Currently, there isn't a cure for my disease but I have a team of amazing people who are trying to change that.
My mum and dad and some very special friends, are doing their best to raise money and support a research project that might help me, and other sufferers one day. We are getting closer, but there is still lots to do. I have to work extremely hard every day to stay healthy with physiotherapy and medication, when all I really want to do is play with my sisters, my dogs Koa and Oakley and hang out with friends.
Thank you, Wyatt
Our goal is to support research programs at The Children's Hospital at Westmead through the Wyatt's Walk for Cystic Fibrosis Research Scholarship. This scholarship means that every dollar that is donated to Wyatt's Walk, is going right back to research, right back to where it counts the most.
In addition, our mission is to introduce a new, younger generation to charitable events. We feel if you start your children on the path of charity, it sets them up for a lifetime of generosity, activity and give kids a powerful boost in self-esteem to realise they can make a difference in someone's life.
