Breast Cancer Fundraiser
4 October 2021
Between the time you woke up this morning and when you go to sleep tonight, 57 Australians will be told they have breast cancer. The same will happen tomorrow, and the next day too, making breast cancer the most common cancer affecting Australian women.
Breast Cancer Network Australia (BCNA) is Australia’s leading breast cancer consumer organisation. For the past 22 years, they have worked tirelessly to ensure that all Australians who are affected by breast cancer receive the very best care, treatment and support.
For the month of October GFM will be proudly hosting a fundraiser to support BCNA and their work. We aim to raise a total of at least $2,000. This will go towards faster, more flexible processes for new medicines to be approved for use in Australia and listed on the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS). Currently, it can take years for a new treatment to be listed on the PBS. This can mean women and their families must either find the money to pay for the treatment or accept that a new treatment that may benefit them is unaffordable for them.
If you would like to show your support and assist our fundraising effort, please donate here!
