We're dancing to make a difference for sick kids!

When a child is injured, or diagnosed with a serious illness, it affects the whole family. Lives can be turned upside down, and it puts families under enormous pressure. For many families, it can feel like it’s impossible to hold it together.

That’s why I’m joining Ronald McDonald House Charities to Dance for Sick Kids this year.

I’ll be making a move every day for over a month, to raise money that will help families stay in a home-away-from-home, access emotional and financial support, and more. From day one in the hospital and for as long as it takes, your help ensures that families don’t have to navigate the challenges of illness or injury alone.

As an instructor, I chose the highest activity level of 2 hours per day.  Given I normally do between 2 & 5 days per week dancing normally, I chose to challenge myself by starting the challenge early and finish later in order to accumulate about 2 weeks of additional dancing!

Personal pledge for Tania Himing was set at the equivalent of 2 nights accommodation ($320) whilst the team pledge for Musta Dance was set at a week accommodation ($1,120).  Unfortunately with key dancers being away etc, no others have been able to join me in the team effort...

Please support me by making a tax-deductible donation to my challenge. Your generosity will make sure that Ronald McDonald House Charities can support even more families with a seriously ill or injured child when they need it most.

Thanks to all the generous people who’ve donated to our challenge.
