I'm now a Zero Hero
The Canberra Grammar School (CGS) Rugby community, through the CGS Rugby Association, are hosting a 'Pink (Home) Round' on Saturday 29th August, because we want a world where there are ZERO deaths from breast cancer. As a community, we believe every death from breast cancer is one too many. To achieve this, we are seeking to raise awareness and much needed funds for more research. All donations made to this page and support for the initiative will help do exactly that.
The National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF) is Australia’s leading national body funding game-changing breast cancer research with money raised entirely by the Australian public.
We really believe research is the best way to prevent deaths, and improve how breast cancer is diagnosed, managed and treated. NBCF is working towards one goal: zero deaths from breast cancer by 2030. Together we can help them get there.
While under normal circumstances, we'd invite you to attend the Home Round, instead, we're asking you to tune into the live stream via CGS Connect [CGS community only] and watch the Pink Home Round from the comfort of your own home - or wherever you might be. The players on the day will be wearing pink socks to raise awareness.
We also ask that you consider becoming a Zero Hero by clicking 'Donate' to make a secure online donation and help CGS Rugby community reach their goal via the 'Pink Round' initiative. Every donation, big or small, will help us get there. Please donate today.
All donations over $2 are tax deductible and you will be issued with a tax-deductible receipt via email as soon as you make your donation.
Thank you so much for your support, particularly in these unprecedented and challenging times Australian's are facing.
