Who is Laird Abernethy?

Friday 24 June 2011
He is an extraordinary individual fundraiser, someone who believes in children and believes in Barnardos ability to change the lives of some of Australia’s most vulnerable children and young people.


Laird has left the country and is about to march across the Gobi Desert starting on the 26th June fundraising for Barnardos Australia. He set himself a target of $5000.00 but as of today, 24th June, he has raised $10180.00!

Laird is an inspiration to us all to be passionate, adventurous and dedicated to the belief that children and young people deserve a safe and caring family environment where they will be nurtured instead of neglected and protected instead of powerless. With Laird’s belief in Barnardos and our work, Australian children and young people will be provided with the opportunity  to grow into healthy, happy adults and reach their full potential.

Thank you Laird and good luck!
