In August 202, 2 year old Hunter Boyle was happily feeding horses on his grandfather's farm in Shepparton. The cheeky toddler loved to visit his grandfather and spend time playing and looking at the moon. On this August day, Hunter silently fell into a nearby dam and drowned. His family's lives were changed forever. In the depths of their despair, hunter's parents, family and friends were driven to make a difference for others and had a dream to establish a program that would provide children in need with critical swimming lessons and water safety education.
Hunters story is so close to our hearts and we witnessed the heartache our family experienced and we hope no one else goes through this pain. We want to support huntys fundraiser in anyway we can, so after four years of growing his hair Nathanial Gula (Chubb) is going to get it chopped off and hopefully raise some money for this amazing program, The hair will also be donated to wigs for men. Please support this cause and help meet our goal, doesn't matter how big or small of a donation it all counts!! Thank you all ??

Drowning is one of the leading causes of accidental death for Australian children under 5 years of age. Victoria is currently experiencing the highest childhood drowning rate in over 20 years (since 1999/2000), with 13 drowning deaths of children aged 0-14 years between July 2020 and January 2021.
