Support my challenge to end pancreatic cancer

This September, I'm walking 78km for the 78 Australians who die from pancreatic cancer each week.

Pancreatic cancer is one of the toughest common cancer, and because early-stage pancreatic cancer rarely causes symptoms, the survival rates are devastating.

Right now, 12 Australians are diagnosed with pancreatic cancer every day. It is the 3rd biggest cancer killer in Australia.

But research can change this. Your support will fund groundbreaking pancreatic cancer research and improve survival rates.

So this September, I'm challenging myself to get up, get moving and walk 78km to fight this terrible disease.

Please make a donation to support me, and together...

We will remember them. We will honour them. We will fight for them.

Today, I reached my 78km goal!

Tuesday 29th Sep
This month I have taken part in the Remember September challenge to stand with Australians impacted by pancreatic cancer.

Today, I reached my 78km goal!
A big Thank you for all, that supported me with donations.

It would mean the world to me if you celebrated this achievement with me by donating to my fundraising page.

Every dollar raised will support PanKind’s groundbreaking pancreatic cancer research to help increase survival rates for those impacted by this disease.
