Martyn Hits the HK$1 million target

This was the moment that we’ve all be waiting for to hear, Martyn has hit the HK$1 million mark! The final sums were raised from donations and sponsorship from the Atacama Crossing race in Chile. This marks an outstanding achievement for Martyn, who had originally hoped that he would be able to raise HK$1 million for Camp Quality after completing all four races but to be able to break the target after Atacama; his third desert race is a indeed an amazing achievement.

It was definitely an emotional moment for everyone at Camp Quality including Martyn and his wife Brenda, who also helped out as a volunteer for the Atacama Crossing race and both coincidentally also celebrated their 25th Wedding Anniversary together in South America just after the race.

Susan Wong added: “On behalf of everyone at Camp Quality, we would like to say a very big thank you to Martyn for his tremendous efforts in reaching the HK$1 million fund-raising target, it’s been a fantastic experience for us to follow each of his race and for him to hit the target the HK$1 million target after Atacama is pretty phenomenal – We’re overwhelmed!

The money, which Martyn has helped to raise, will go towards providing year-round care and support for children with cancer and their families in Hong Kong. Camp Quality plays an important role in ensuring those affected by childhood cancer are able to progress through treatment and get back to their life afterwards by providing a source of motivation, encouragement and emotional support at our events and activities throughout the year.
