RADIE P NK IS BACK!

UPCOMING FUNDRAISING ACTIVITIES

Carman’s Fun Run 2023 We are thrilled to announce that we will once again be partnering with Carman’s and Sole Motive for Carman’s Fun Run on Sunday 19 February 2023 at Elsternwick Park, Brighton, in Melbourne. Together we will turn the park into a sea of pink as we gather as a community and inspire each other to participate in the 5K, 10K or half- marathon events. If you are unable to participate in person on the day, you can join the run virtually from anywhere in Australia, and beyond. Carman’s Fun Run ambassador, Oskar Baker from Melbourne Football Club, says he is pleased to help support Breast Cancer Network Australia (BCNA) and encourages others to join him. ‘I am passionate about supporting BCNA who work to help people affected by breast cancer. I will be running again in honour of my mum, along with my girlfriend and close mates. I look forward to seeing you all there!’ Pink up and join us for some live entertainment and fun activities, all while supporting those affected by breast cancer. For more information or to register visit BCNA’s website .

This month, we’re calling on tradies across Australia to wear pink, by pulling on a Pink Tradie beanie and a pair of BCNA pink socks, to support the 20,640 Australians expected to be diagnosed with breast cancer this year. Pink up at work, host a fundraising event and start a conversation with your workmates about breast cancer to help BCNA continue to provide information and support to those diagnosed and their families. For more information visit the BCNA website or the official Pink Tradie fundraising page.
