Racing for Wildlife

By Willem Tys

I've created this fundraiser because I want to help protect nature and our planet!  

Australia is home to some of the most unique wildlife on earth, animals that exist nowhere else, in ecosystems that took millions of years to develop. But habitat destruction, invasive species, and climate change are pushing countless species toward extinction, and once they're gone, they're gone forever. 

This isn't just an Australia problem either. Healthy ecosystems regulate out climate, clean our water, and sustain the food systems the entire world depends on. 

These animals are fighting for survival every single day, so the least I can do is fight through 28 hours of non-stop endurance racing to raise money for WWF Australia - the people working hard to protect them. It's a gruelling test of focus and stamina, but if it means something for the wildlife and habitats that actually matter, every sleepless hour is worth it. 

The challenge is big. But so is our hope. Let’s turn heartbreak into action. Help me raise funds for a future where wildlife thrives, forests grow, and oceans are full of life.

Thank you so much!
