What is the '7 Wonders Challenge'?
From 23 September – 7 October, 2011, 18 intrepid travellers will take on the challenge of trekking the Himalayas, Nepal to raise funds for the Royal Children's Hospital Foundation, Brisbane.

Each participant will pay for their travel and accommodation costs and commit to raising at least $3,000 for the Royal Children’s Hospital Foundation to fund groundbreaking research at the Royal Children’s Hospital.

Each year, the Royal Children’s Hospital cares for more than 30,000 children from all over Queensland, northern New South Wales and beyond. Through the support of the community, the Royal Children’s Hospital Foundation works wonders for sick kids by investing in groundbreaking research leading to faster diagnoses, better treatments and ultimately cures for childhood illnesses.
