Who am I and who am I walking for

Hi everyone. My name is Mary Patricia Dwyer, more commonly known as Mum and GMA (Grandma.) I am walking for Tassie Mums, Hobart. Tassie Mums are dedicated to helping and providing for babies and children with everyday essentials for a happy and healthy life.

 

We, my husband Tom and I, had a family of 9 children. Fortunately, we were always able to provide for them with a good home, and a good education. I have been very aware of the problems many mothers and families face. With this in mind, I felt I had to do something. I am now blessed with 22 grandchildren and 4 great-grandchildren all of who have wonderful lives.

 

I am 86 years old. In gratitude, I will walk my 100 kms, to give to Tassie mums a little to help the children that they provide for.

 

Why am I walking?

I first read about Tassie Mum's in our local paper. They were seeking warm coats for little ones. At the end of each day, I get into bed at night and I think of all of those mums, with their little children who are cold and possibly even homeless. I just felt I had to do something.

 

I can only walk on the flat now but I intend to set time aside daily for this cause. My daughter will share my journey on 100 Women 2 FB and IG as I walk and will also update this page for me. 

 

Please donate. Any amount is appreciated. And I am truly grateful in advance. Let's see what we can do as a community to raise money for Tassie Mums.

 

How can you help?

Please donate to this special campaign.

Share this with your family and friends. This makes such a difference. I do not know how to use social media well so your help to share this with your family would be much appreciated.

Are you yearning to make a difference? Would you like to join other like-minded women to help women in need? Then maybe you would like to join us as one of 100 Women who are committed to walking 100kms.

 

Each woman who walks commits to raising $1,000. As a collective, we will raise $100,000 with all proceeds supporting other women in need. That is making a difference... and you can walk where you want and when you want. Walking 3.33 km per day means you will cover 100kms in one month. Most of us would walk this every day! This is designed to be doable, fun and make a difference! Would you like to know more?

Thank you in advance for your contribution to this cause which means so much to me.
