2026 Fundraiser
Join us at Ambra Spirits for an afternoon dedicated to education, opportunity, and impact as we support the Sliding Doors Foundation scholarship program through Quinton Ewer’s Boston Marathon fundraising journey.
Our shared goal is to raise $60,000 to help remove financial barriers to education and create long-term opportunities for young people facing social and economic disadvantage.
This event is proudly supported by achieveERP, CCK Lawyers, and Ellerston Capital, with event sponsor and Sliding Doors Foundation Founder, Joe Collins, generously supporting food and beverages for the afternoon.
Attendance is free. Guests are invited to contribute through live fundraising on the day, helping turn belief into real educational outcomes.
Meet Quinton Ewer
Quinton Ewer is Adelaide-born and bred, a father of two, and a long-time leader in the fitness industry with more than 25 years of experience as a personal trainer and founder of Fundamental Fitness.
After completing his first marathon in Melbourne in 2024, Quinton ran the Adelaide Marathon in May 2025 in under three hours, qualifying him to apply for the Boston Marathon. His acceptance into the 2026 race is a major personal and athletic milestone.
Quinton chose to run for the Sliding Doors Foundation because he believes education is one of the most powerful drivers of long-term change. Through his connection with Joe Collins and Andrew Downs, and his own values around giving back, Quinton is using this moment to help create opportunities for young people facing social and economic disadvantage.
For Quinton, Boston is not just about distance. It is about using achievement to open doors for others. Connect via socials to see his journey!

About the Boston Marathon
The Boston Marathon is the world’s oldest annual marathon and one of the most prestigious endurance events globally.
Unlike most races, entry is not guaranteed. Runners must achieve strict qualifying times, apply for limited positions, and be formally accepted.
The 130th Boston Marathon will take place on 20 April 2026, covering 42.2 kilometres across one of the most historic and demanding marathon courses in the world.
For Quinton Ewer, being accepted into the Boston Marathon is both a personal achievement and an opportunity to use sport as a platform for social impact.
