I'm doing Hoops4Schools and fundraising for The BUSY School

Help me and my team to sink hoops and raise money to allow The BUSY School to continue their amazing work helping disengaged youth complete school and gain employment.

Did you know, 1 in 5 Australian students are disengaged with their education? That means, they have disengaged from their schooling and are at risk of not completing Year 12. That's 20% of all school students...

Many of these young people have experienced bullying or have mental health challenges, problems at home or a variety of reasons that have made attending traditional school difficult. 

So, I'm sinking hoops to show my support for these students. My aim is create a team that has more athletic ability and height than I do to sink as many hoops for 20 Days between Friday 16 Aug – Thursday 5 Sept. I've set a target for how many hoops my team will sink and how much I will fundraise for The BUSY School who are supporting young people to re-engage with their education.
