Help Kerry Suter & Ali when they need us the most.

Hi Friends of Kerry & Ali

 

On Saturday 26 Feb Kerry came off his mountain bike breaking and dislocating his neck. Kerry now has some serious recovering to do after he was flown by helicopter for emergency surgery at Middlemore Hospital in Auckland a good 3.5 hours from their home in Rotorua.

 

He needs our love and prayers but most of all, he needs his best friend and biggest supportor Ali to be by his side. They are both going to have a long road ahead and if we can help ease that burden even a tiny bit I know it will mean the world to them.

 

We are fundraising to show our support, love, friendship and utmost respect for two of the most generous and inspiring people we know. Two people who literally get us to the start line, share our journey and are there waiting for us to finish, rain, hail or shine, regardless of the time of day. It’s our time to support them on one of the hardest roads they will travel.

 

We are helpless toward any physical repair for Kerry, but psychologically we are powerful people. We can do so much for him in the coming months to make him realise his immense value to us all, when he himself will likely be feeling helpless.

 

We are far away but we can still come together to help our “family” in their time of need, helping two people who literally spend their life, helping us.

 

Whether you can spare $2 or $200 it doesn't matter. All funds will be given directly to Ali & Kerry for living costs, fuel, supplement of income, rehab and the like. It will all help ease one small burden so Kerry & Ali can focus on the journey of healing and know we've got them ❤️

My name is Tina Kirwan and I am a Chartered Accountant and a kiwi living in Burpengary East in Qld, Australia. Kerry & Ali have been my coaches since I first met them at Blackbutt RnR in Qld in 2017 and have been blessed to have them coach me to PB's from 5k to 100km since then.  They are my coaches and my friends and everyone knows what an amazing impact they have on trail running as a community and a sport.  The funds will be used in whatever way Kerry & Ali see fit, whether this be transport, accommodation, medical and rehab costs, sprucing up Kerry's new wheels or just general day to day living costs that don't stop because your world comes crashing down.  The funds will be deposited to my local Australian bank account and then transferred across to Ali's bank account in NZ at the best exchange rate we can secure.

Thank you for your generosity and support.
