My Story…
Hi there, I'm taking on a huge challenge this year to support the dreams of thousands of young people with disability who want to be included in the community, be valued and be productive members of our community.
A dream that was sparked by Niccolo’, a young man with Down Syndrome, Hotel Etico’s first ever trainee in Italy 10 years ago.
And the dream now lives on in Australia.
I will be running 400kms from our original hotel on Mount Victoria, all the way to Canberra where we have opened a new Academy of Independence.
I will be doing it over 13 harrowing days, while spreading the message of inclusion across NSW and ACT from 8 March to 21 March.
I need your support!
Please make a donation, no matter how small! And why not join yourself the virtual challenge, see how far you can go on the way to Canberra over 2 full months (yes you get a bit more time!) and help us fundraise.
Because young people with disability want a chance. And they deserve it!
We want to create 40 new jobs and change 40 lives.
With your help we can!
Donations made through this platform are secure and will be remitted directly through to Hotel Etico.
Thank you so much for your support!
Donate to help Andrea raise money for Long Run To Inclusion 2026’s fundraising campaign.
