]]> With 3 events now completed and all funds gathered, we are thrilled to advise that we have raised over $14,000 for Childhood Cancers research, specifically for Assoc. Professor Michelle Teng and Dr Kyohei Nakamura of QIMR Berghofer.

100% of the funds raised at these events will be donated to the 2 research laboratories where they are battling to understand and beat Ewings Sarcoma and Hodgkins Lymphoma – in honour of our two softball friends Kirsty Lester and Addie Clay. Kirsty is kicking butt in her battle against Ewings Sarcoma and Addie fought a great fight and has beaten Hodgkins Lymphoma.

The #p4ac 10 year head shave brought in over $9000, with special thanks to Jodie Wilson and her dad, Dean, for joining in and shaving in Woorim Bribie Island and contributing $1100+ to the head shave. Pink Panther Day brought in $2600+ and Pink Day for Kirsty $2300+. Amazing support from our wonderful softball community and #teamp4ac supporters.

The are endless folks to thank and their names have been captured in these videos – check them out and enjoy!
