Thank you for rowing your hearts out for brain cancer

04 Mar 2026

Connor’s Erg 2026 has officially wrapped, and what an incredible effort it’s been.

Across Australia and the United States, schools, gyms and individuals came together with one shared goal: to use their strength to help change the odds for kids facing brain cancer. From early starts on the rower to team relays and community challenges, the energy and commitment behind this year’s Erg has been nothing short of inspiring.

Together, you’ve helped raise nearly $40,000 USD (approximately $60,000 AUD) — a powerful contribution towards vital research and support for young people facing brain cancer.

We’ve loved watching teams push through, cheer each other on, and cross the finish line over the past few months. Every stroke, every session, and every dollar raised has made a meaningful difference.

To every school, gym and individual who took part — thank you for showing up, getting involved, and truly using your brawn for the brain 💛

A special thank you to our incredible partners — Hyundai Help For Kids, Colgan Foundation and Jacobus Energy — for your ongoing support and commitment to this campaign.

Connor’s Erg continues to grow each year, and it’s because of this community — passionate, generous, and determined — that we’re able to keep pushing forward.
