Melbourne United to participate in KMS4KIDS for third consecutive year

Melbourne United is proud to announce that all club staff, players and coaches will once again be participating in LifeChanger’s KM'S4KIDS, and encourages its supporters and fans to get involved as well!

KM's4KIDS is a 21-day virtual wellbeing challenge hosted by one of Melbourne United’s charity partners, The LifeChanger Foundation.

It is the LifeChanger Foundation’s mission to empower young people by providing the resources, skills, education, and pathways they need to develop self-esteem, self-awareness, positive self-identity, and resilience.

Using evidence-based programs, expert facilitation and trained community mentors, LifeChanger aims to provide young people with the emotional and social skills to live more thriving, resilient lives.

Melbourne United CEO Nick Truelson touched on his excitement to be getting involved in the initiative once again.

“This is the third year in a row the club has taken part in the KM'S4KIDS Challenge, and we couldn’t be more excited to get out there and tally up the kilometres.” Truelson said.

“The initiative is so important to help support the amazing work The LifeChanger Foundation is doing to assist young adults looking for support.”

“At Melbourne United, it’s our purpose to use the power of basketball to help enrich people’s lives, which includes using our platform to champion great causes like this.”

From Thursday 1st September, Melbourne United’s staff, players and coaches will clock up as many kilometres as they can by walking, running, or riding as a team.

Melbourne United fans, members, partners, and stakeholders are invited to join the team and help reach our fundraising goal.
