Another successful Sussan Women's Fun Run!
A huge thank you to every one of our Melbourne supporters who gathered in St Kilda on Sunday to participate in or to support a loved one in the 27th annual Sussan Women’s Fun Run!
BCNA was once again thrilled to be the official charity partner for the event which was held last Sunday 2 December 2012.
More than 4,500 women of all ages and abilities took to Catani Gardens in Australia’s premier women’s only fun run. Everyone was in high spirits wearing a splash of pink and getting behind BCNA.
Over $97,000 was raised this year for BCNA through fundraising and merchandise sales – thank you to everyone for their support!
A special mention must go to our top fundraiser, Sarah Gaunt, who raised an impressive $5790 in honour of her mother who has been recently diagnosed with breast cancer and is receiving support from BCNA.
A special thank you also to event ambassador, Raelene Boyle, and event commentator, Samantha Lane who provided plenty of fun and entertainment on the day. It was great to see Channel 10, Channel 7 and ABC also report on this great event.
Thank you to everyone for supporting this special run. We look forward to seeing you again next year.
