Charlie & Zara
This group was formed by a group of close mates in Wagga Wagga to raise awareness and much needed funds for BrAshA-T.
Jeff and Carly Millar had never heard of Ataxia-Telangiectasia until 18 months ago when they were told by doctors that they believed their son Charlie had the rare genetic disorder. Devastated and in disbelief they would later learn that their little girl Zara, was also born with A-T.
Jeff and his mates undertook the 12 day trek from Kathmandu to Mt Everest Base Camp in November 2018 to raise much need funds.
Despite the walk having been successfully completed, Jeff & Carly's team are still raising funds for their cause.
The trek was hard but not as hard as what potentially lies ahead for Charlie (4yrs), his sister Zara (2yrs), and the other 40 children in Australia living with A-T.
There is a cure out there, we just need to find it!
We thank you for your generosity, it is greatly appreciated!
Your support helps fund research into a cure for A-T and supporting Australian families affected by A-T.
