Rhys and Sam (Rambo & Sambo) are planning to embark on a 35 000km walk around the
circumference of Australia to support families of the victims of death and serious
injuries on Australia's roads.
We are currently looking for expressions of interest from corporations, small and
medium businesses, schools, community groups and individuals for sponsorship.
Support has already been pledged from a number of high profile community
organisations, journalistic media, lawyers and individuals getting behind the
cause.
The foundation aims to attract major widespread attention and raise funds to
distribute a substantial monetary contribution. The goal is large, we hope to
raise upwards of 500k reaching into the possible millions.
Opportunities for sponsors include high exposure through social media channels,
association with a worthwhile cause and product endorsements. (high quality
website, facebook, twitter, phone applications etc.)
Please contact us by replying to this message directly or by emailing us at
ramboandsambo@gmail.com
If anything we hope you can offer some advice or point us in the direction of
someone who might be able to help.
Susanne's Story:
In 2011 Susanne and Linda decided to visit downunder from Holland both hoping for
the time of their lives. Two beautiful young girls in their early twenties.
Before they arrived in Australia, neither one knew each other. The girls soon
became the best of friends and quickly made plans to see the country together.
Early the following year fate would bring Rhys and Susanne into the same house in
Melbourne and they became lovers.
By February, the girls left for Western Australia lured by work and adventure.
Tragically, on March 3rd 2012 at 2:15pm on a dangerous stretch of dirt highway
just outside of the Town of Esperence a van struck the girl's vehicle from side
on. Susanne died instantly from the impact.
When paramedics arrived Linda was thought to have died also, but miraculously
regained her vital signs and was rushed to intensive care.
Linda spent a long time in hospital suffering from a punctured lung, broken ribs,
fractured pelvis and collarbone. She was unable to fly home due to her delicate
condition.
Police decided to arrest Linda for Dangerous Driving on suspicion of causing
Susanne's death. Linda was unable to remember the events leading up to the
accident. This made her case a difficult one.
Fortunately for Linda, in August 2012. A number of Residents of the town came
forward in court and testified that the road was extremely dangerous. It was later
found the cause of the accident was a stop sign obscured by a tree. The girls had
failed to see it.
Linda was found Not Guilty!
The medical and legal bills alone amount to over One Hundred and Fifty Thousand
Dollars.
Rhys and Sam are walking and working to help support families who have been
victims of similar incidents, including loss of their loved ones and to help raise
awareness on being safe while driving on Australia's roads.
The boys walk for Susanne and hope she hasn't died without her memory helping to
prevent another tragedy.
