BIRRELL-STAFFORD ZERO HERO CHALLENGE

I'm now a Zero Hero

For those who know me, my grandmother was diagnosed with breast cancer a few years ago and had surgery to remove the cancer, along with radiation therapy. She still needs weekly medication in the hopes of ensuring she stays cancer free for the rest of her life. 

My partner Chris and I have decided to become a ZERO hero to honour my grandmother’s fight, treatment and success; and raise awareness and much needed funds so that all families may be as lucky as ours, to have our loved one with us for many years to come. And so that all those women and men faced with breast cancer don’t face a prognosis of death!

As a fun incentive we will also be colouring our hair PINK at the end of October (or if we reach the goal early) because we want a world where there are ZERO deaths from breast cancer. We believe every death from breast cancer is one too many. To achieve this, we are raising funds for more research. All donations made to this page 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.

Click 'Donate' to make a secure online donation and help us reach our goal. 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!
