Strong Women - may we know them, may we be them, may we raise them.
In loving memory and celebration of the lives of Faye Donald, Kerri Flockhart, Judy McClelland and Mary Quinn.
We are raising funds for research and treatment for friends and family who are living with breast or gynaecological cancer.
This year, approximately 17,920 women in Victoria will be diagnosed with cancer, and around 5,200 will die from the disease. More than 7,200 Victorian women will be diagnosed with breast or gynaecological cancer.
However, thanks to wonderful generosity like yours, the rate of women dying from cancer is declining. Since 1994, the rate has been consistently decreasing by 1.4% per year.
By living a healthy lifestyle and participating in recommended screening programs, women can significantly reduce their risk of developing cancer and increase their chances of discovering it early.
