Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I hope that you are able to make a small donation to help me, and my friends raise money to support the McGrath Foundation - every dollar counts.

Why this is important: 20,000 Australian women (and some men)  are diagnosed with breast cancer every year. You can imagine what a hugely traumatic thing that is to deal with, for them and their families.

The McGrath Foundation, through donations like yours, funds and trains speciality nurses who provide essential physical, psychological and emotional support from the time of diagnosis, throughout treatment, and beyond. Since the Foundation started it has helped over 75,000 families deal with breast cancer, including some of my close friends.

To raise funds, myself and a team of nine other leaders from NAB are going to walk 500km in the Month of October, which equates to 20,000 steps a day, over 31 days. A big effort for a big cause.

October is the perfect time, as it is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

So please do what you can to help, it will be much appreciated by me, the team and the Foundation - as I tread the KMs with my two dogs, Jasper and Jade, come rain or shine.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the McGrath Foundation. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
