Join us for our exciting Virtual Walk for Wings!

With social distancing in full force, this year at DEBRA we are launching a Virtual Walk for Wings Challenge! You will be able to complete the walk from the comfort of YOUR local area to help raise awareness and much needed funds for those living with EB.

Do it as a team, with your family, with a friend or by yourself. Walk every day, or one. This challenge is open to all – nationwide! – and we want you to make it your own!

The spirit of our Walk for Wings remains the same. It’s a chance for ALL our families and EB supporters to come together and raise awareness whilst showing our support for families that have lost loved ones or are still battling every day with EB.

This year will have NO registration free, so what are you waiting for, sign up today!

To participate, sign up to create your own fundraising page, integrate your preferred fitness app, and get walking. Remember, share your page with friends, family and your local community to help drive donations and spread the word about EB. As well as uniting as a community to raise awareness for EB, we are coming together as a DEBRA Family to raise critical funds for our life-changing programs, and to one day find a cure.

2. Create an EverydayHero account (or login if you already have one) using your email address as your username.

3. Complete your fundraising page by including a photo, and sharing your “EB Story”

We encourage all participants to write a short paragraph about why they’re walking for wings this year, why you want your community to get behind you, and any goals you’ve set yourself for the challenge.

4. Integrate your fitness app! For instructions on how to link up your strava, fitbit or mapmyfitness account with your fundraising page (so that you can share your distance, locations travelled to or any other walking milestones) click the relevant link.

5. Share! Click the “share” button on your fundraising page, and rally the support of your FB friends, Instagram and twitter followers.

Remember, if you require any assistance with setting up your page or have any questions about our Virtual challenge, don’t hesitate to get in touch at: fundraising@debra.org.au

As always, we encourage all participants to wear a pop of purple if walking in memory of a loved one, or a pop of blue to continue the FIGHT against EB. Take a photo of yourself in your coloured attire, and be sure to share across your fundraising page and social media to help spread the word about EB
