The ME/CFS community (aka ‘MEEPS’ / Jarmy Army) is amazing. In both words and actions, supporters of our cause demonstrate incredible compassion for fellow sufferers, people more severely impacted than themselves, people who might be isolated by the condition and especially people who are just beginning their journey.
From persuading friends and family to run marathons, to organising sausage sizzles, to knitting or crafting – supporters across Australia find ways to raise critical funds for people affected by ME/CFS in Australia.

I'm a survivor! It is still a balancing act but I am 99% recovered and loving life. I want to give back to those who are still suffering and to further research into this terrible illness, not understood or accepted by many. On July 16th I'm planning on running 40km to raise much needed awareness and funds for those living with ME/CFS.
I'm fundraising to give hope and help to the 250,000 people living with Myalgic encephalomyelitis/Chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) across Australia. Once we reach $500, I will dye my beard a fluoro colour for 24 hours. If we raise over $1,000, I will shave the beard and leave the moustache for a week
