We’ve already had an overwhelming response and can’t wait for some of that Pink Test magic to be brought into communities from Bundaberg to Bunbury and everywhere in between.

Pink Stumps Day has been helping the McGrath Foundation hit a “six” since it began in 2011, with more than 2500 clubs, schools, communities and businesses stumping up to support the foundation. 

But this year we’ve set a challenge of bowling over all previous years and aim to raise $1 million through our Pink Stumps Day initiative.

The success of Pink Stumps Day is a direct result of the support we receive day in, day out from communities. 

And it’s through support like this that has enabled us to ensure 25,000 families experiencing breast cancer in Australia have had access to a McGrath breast care nurse.

We recently hit our own Maiden Ton with the funding for our 100th McGrath breast care nurse and hope that through fundraising efforts such as Pink Stumps Day we will be able to realise our goal of funding 150 McGrath breast care nurses, as only then will every family experiencing breast cancer have access to optimal care.

There’s still time to register your team or show your support at an event that may already be happening in your area. For more information, visit www.mcgrathfoundation.com.au
