Penrith NSW

When Gai Hawthorn, CEO of Penrith CBD Corporation, was contacted by the McGrath Foundation in 2018, her board members had a polite giggle, because Gai didn’t follow cricket. Since then, McGrath Foundation Co-Founder and President Glenn McGrath, has taught Gai a thing or two about the game.                                                                             

Berry NSW

 In the picturesque NSW rural town of Berry, their popular Pink Up Berry campaign has been going strong for more than four years. But for local Berry resident, Deb Woolford, the self-confessed ‘captain’ of the fundraising committee — every day is a pink day for her. In 2019, Deb gathered seven keen local residents to form a Pink Up Your Town taskforce.

Penguin TAS

Shirly Good is the kind of lady you go to for all sorts of advice, especially in a small town. She’s a hero cake maker, an exemplary seamstress and award-winning charity worker in the town of Penguin, home to around 4500 people, on the north-west coast of Tasmania. In 2018, in typical Shirly fashion — she registered Pink Up Your Town and did it on her own.

Why Fundraise?

The McGrath Foundation currently funds 223 McGrath Breast Care Nurses, across Australia, who have provided care and support to over 137,000 families since 2005.

There is so much more we need to do to ensure that every family going through breast cancer has access to a McGrath Breast Care Nurse.

From your streets to your schools, show you care this Breast Cancer Awareness Month by helping the McGrath Foundation reach our mission of ensuring no one misses out on this type of care.
