00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 2: don't realize how much you need them until you're in

25
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:11,400
Speaker 2: the situation. But it's just it's just everything, like you know,

Speaker 1: Pretty easy to get behind them. I know that one

31
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:31,800
Speaker 1: of Charlotte's greatest fears was being forgotten, no risk of

32
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:34,520

Speaker 1: come and go through the day overall the events, which

40
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,480
Speaker 1: is driven by the Crusaders, which is so cool. It's

41
00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 1: said a pretty ambitious fundraising goal of three hundred thousand,

42
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,400
Speaker 1: and I know in the last couple of weeks it's

43
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,280
Speaker 1: the collective Charlotte's Army that's been leading the charge. Is

44
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 1: one of the top fundraisers. What'd you tell he currently

45
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 1: sitting at.

46
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 2: Oh I haven't actually looked recently, but I think we

47
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 2: were thirty three. Our goal is twenty. So it's just

48
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 2: absolutely incredible to have smashed. People are so incredibly generous.

49
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:23,400
Speaker 2: It's been amazing.

50
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:27,640
Speaker 1: Where is all that support coming from oh everywhere, like

51
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,080
Speaker 1: there's donations from Australia coming in.

52
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:33,440

57
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 1: everybody's mind, what are conditions.

58
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:48,440
