Rotary Club of Armadale

That’s awesome enough,

but when you discover that 28 year old Kylie has been blind

since she was 3 years old and has lost a leg to cancer,

you have to take off your proverbial hat and say “Bravo!”

With the aid of crutches, Kylie climbed the 1042 stairs (51 stories)

of the former Bankwest Tower in the Perth CBD (now owned by sponsor Brookfield),

in just over 40 minutes.

Past President of the Rotary Club of Armadale, Peter Warren

, was also at the breakfast to receive a cheque from event organiser,

Rotarian Rob Bunning, for the net proceeds of Peter’s fundraising via the climb.

The cheque, for $2,142.00 was pre-sented to Peter

in his role as WA & NT Director of Mukti Mission.

For the second year in a row, Peter undertook the climb

and raised a significant amount for Mukti Mission’s work rescuing

and empowering women and children in India.

A total of around $50,000 was raised for Polio Plus,

Interplast, Mukti Mission, Teen Challenge, Cancer Support

WA, Rotary for Melanoma Research, ROMAC and Wheels for Hope.

Kylie is no stranger to a challenge!

In 2014, she won the 2014 World Champi-onship of Blind Sailing

and she is the current Skipper of the Australian Blind Sailing Team!

. Aye, aye, Skipper! Well done!
