Organiser: Sandman
Date: 2 March 2014
Mission: 20 year old, Jimmy Harrington is walking around Australia to raise $300,000 for The Brainchild Foundation.
Mission
Jimmy Harrington believes he was born to make a change. To help the world one step at a time. His first mission in his journey to make a change is, to walk over 18,000km around Australia raising funds and awareness of the Brainchild Foundation.
His mission:
1. To raise $300,000+ for the Brainchild Foundation
2. To raise awareness of this brilliant charity
3. To become the youngest person to have walked Australia (Jimmy's personal mission)
4. Most importantly, to bring smiles and happiness to the children in the hospitals he visits.
First thing that people ask Jimmy when they hear of his journey on foot around Australia is "Are you crazy?". Maybe, but it is an adventure and a dream that he has trained for and has worked hard to achieve. He says, "I hope to see you all at the finish line in May 2014, Ill be there too".

We all suited up at the Greek Club across the road from Musgrave Park and headed over to meet Jimmy at around 2.00pm
After taking some photos in the park we then headed up to the stage for the presentation for Jimmy. It was inspiring to listen to Jimmy's courageous talk and the crowd fully appreciated his efforts. Well done Jimmy on behalf of Tatooine Base and the Redback Garrison.
