Kennards Hire Sail for Premmie Babies 2002


Overview -

Beginning on the 30th March through to the 6th April 2002 Tony will sail his yacht affectionately known as 'Sal' and revive his 1996 7-day, non-stop sail around Lake Macquarie. This non-stop sail and the subsequent "Peoples Party for Premmie Babies" to be held on the final Saturday night will be a continuation of fundraising for the John Hunter Children's Hospital (JHCH). To date a total of $90,000 has been raised for the Neo-natal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) from his Around the World effort, and he is determined to ensure that the fundraising activities continue.


Since 1993 Tony has raised over $200,000 for charity.
"I tried it and now I am hooked!
Are you game to start thinking ... How can I help?"



The Challenge -

Set a course on Lake Macquarie and sail continuously for seven days and nights completing the event with a spectacular "Peoples Party for Premmie Babies" raising as much money as possible for the John Hunter Children's Hospital NICU. This event is a continuation of the specific task to purchase Vital Signs Systems Monitors for Premature Babies. There were 13 of these units desperately needed, at a cost of $18,000 each. With the money raised to-date six units have been purchased with each unit giving these little wonders a chance at life.
