THANK YOU! What a magnificent effort – 130,000 participants and 2000 volunteers.On Sunday morning, more than 130,000 Australians in a record 74 locations came together to walk or run for breast cancer research and to show their respect for those affected by breast cancer, contributing to the lasting impact the Women in Super Mother's Day Classic has had on breast cancer research in Australia.
Due to your participation and this year’s outstanding individual and team efforts fundraising, we now expect this year's fundraising total to reach well in excess of $4 million, on top of the $14.8 million raised in previous years. This has made Mother's Day Classic the biggest single donor to the National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF), supporting research projects into detection, prevention, treatment and ultimately finding a cure.
The weather was kind this year in most of the 74 locations but even in those locations that did get the rain, families, teams, men and women paid no regard to the elements and came together to show their support for those affected by breast cancer and to help us raise more funds than ever before.
It was a great effort with record crowd numbers in almost every location. Whether you walked, run, cheered, volunteered or fundraised we thank you all.
