Everyday Hero – Support the Children’s Cancer Institute Australia
Every year more than 500 Australian children will be diagnosed with cancer.
Every week three Australian children will die of cancer.
Team Livestrong/CCIA Team 09 consisting of Simon, Evan, Derek and Catherine will be cycling in the Around The Bay in a Day bicycle ride. The ride is being held in Melbourne Australia on October 18th 2009 and covers over 210km around the stunning Port Philip Bay.
We are raising money to support the Children’s Cancer Institute Australia for Medical Research. Join our team and help us find a cure for childhood cancer. Your gift, no matter how big or small, will help us continue our vital research and provide hope for a happy and healthy future for our children.
To make a donation please visit to my official CCIA fundraising page.
As an appreciation for your donation, the Lance Armstrong Foundation have donated a small quantity of Livestrong wristbands in both Adult and Youth sizes for all donations over $5.
As cyclists we are inspired by Lance Armstrong and the Livestrong Foundation for their efforts with raising cancer awareness.
