‘Pink Up Your Town’ is a great opportunity to generate community pride, while raising funds for the McGrath Foundation.
Tracy Bevan, McGrath Foundation Ambassador and Director, is ecstatic for this new initiative that will not only see towns across the country awash with pink.
“All funds raised by the Nyngan community will go towards ensuring a McGrath Breast Care Nurse is available right across rural and metro Australia to help improve outcomes for people diagnosed with breast cancer,” she said.
The town of Mudgee, NSW, has already committed to the initiative during October and are planning to place pink lightbulbs in the windows of local businesses, community buildings and the town hall, as well as holding a large raffle fundraiser.
People who wish to get involved and ‘Pink Up Your Town’ to support the McGrath Foundation during October can register by visiting McGrath Foundation website.
