Harley 30kms in 30 Days
I found this awesome little Hume’n this week and he is so inspiring. Harley is a 9 year Old boy who was raising money for Violence against women. He pledged to run 30 kilometers in 30 Days. Well, he smashed it out of the park and also raised a tonne of money in the process. See, the Hume area is full of Local Heroes, it just takes a little bit of looking to find how awesome Hume is. [ info ]
If you would like to support Harley to help him raise more funds for his effort you can donate to his page here [ INFO ]
Harley you're a champion!!!🏆🏆🏆
