Emma Daken

Emma Daken is doing something inspiring. Emma is a 20 year old student at Victoria University and she is spending all of November and December plus some of January walking from Cape Reinga to Bluff. Emma is doing it to raise money for research into a cure for cystic fibrosis. Almost every day she is walking the equivalent of a marathon.

Emma has already raised $12,000. She is giving up two months of her life to walk over 2000 kms to help this great cause. If you want to support her efforts you can easily make a donation online here. Her goal is to raise $50,000.

The Rodney Times has a photo and story about Emma’s walk.

You can also follow her walk on her blog. She is walking today from Eskdale to Hastings. Her entire schedule is on Facebook.
