Peter Riley's Fundraising Challenge
Story
Hi there,
A professional role model of mine has benefited from 2 heart transplants and is alive and thriving almost 30 years later.
1,100 Victorians have received heart and lungs since transplants began at The Alfred Hospital, Melbourne
Heart and Lung Transplant Trust (Victoria) Inc. ("HLTTV") is organizing the Tour de Transplant, a 9 day cycling challenge from 22nd to 30th March 2014. Symbolically the route covers 1,100km around Victoria.
Pre existing commitments precluded me from undertaking the entire ride, but I will be doing the last 5 days, including days involving climbing Tawonga Gap and Falls Creek following up with days of 150k and 142k.
Each participant is raising money for HLTTV's Second Chance Accommodation Program. The program provides a home away from home, post operation, for interstate and regional patients throughout their recovery and rehabilitation period. $2,400 will help one family with accommodation for 3 months, being their required period of need post transplant. Currently funding is only able to provide less than half of transplant families with accommodation. The need is both immediate and ongoing.
If your donation is from a Private Ancillary Fund the easiest approach is to draw a cheque payable to Heart and Lung Transplant Trust (Vic) Incorporated. If you could send the cheque to Annette she can ensure that it is properly receipted and acknowledged.

All donations over $2 are tax deductible and you will be issued with a DGR receipt via email as soon as you make a donation.
Thanks so much for your support!
