Your donation will help us enhance breast cancer treatment and care, and increase survival rates.
We began in 2000 with a vision to provide high quality care while conducting research that would deliver the most advanced treatments and save lives.
BCRC-WA conducts research into breast cancer treatment and care that underpins the treatment we provide to our patients.
The Something Pink fundraiser is now an annual event in Kalgoorlie started by a Katrina Tedge and Gai Robinson to raise money for BCRC-WA.
Katrina Tedge and Gai Robinson are two women on a mission to raise money for BCRC-WA.
Katrina is a breast cancer survivor and Gai lives with stage 4 breast cancer. Both women, local Kalgoorlie residents, are single minded in their vision to make difference for breast cancer patients in WA.
Katrina and Gai’s fundraising efforts began when they distributed pink fundraising tins around the Kalgoorlie area. In 2017, they decided to organise a charity night which soon became known as ‘Something Pink’. The night was a great success, so successful in fact it was decided to hold the event again in 2018 which raised an overwhelming $90,000, almost double the previous year’s efforts.
Something Pink’s wide appeal will no doubt see it happen annually and become a Kalgoorlie tradition.
BCRC-WA is incredibly appreciative of the huge effort put into Something Pink by Katrina and Gai.
