    Get creative for cancer research! Last year, the artwork for the Foundation's annual greeting card was kindly donated by Xander, aged 9, a proud Peter Mac supporter and grandson of a former Peter Mac patient. This year, we’re inviting the Peter Mac community to get creative for cancer research and design a new greeting card that celebrates the holiday season. This is a special opportunity to see your artwork brought to life, all while playing a big role in helping Peter Mac express thanks and gratitude to our wonderful supporters. The competition is open to everyone who has a personal connection to Peter Mac including patients, loved ones, supporters, and of course staff. To find out more and submit your entry visit foundation.petermac.org/greeting-card.
    Harry’s @harryontherun100 world came crashing down when his younger brother was diagnosed with brain cancer at the age of 24.
    Tomorrow 700 firefighters will ascend the 28 floors of the Crown Metropol building wearing 25kg of kit, including breathing apparatus to symbolise the health and wellbeing challenges faced by first responders and their families every day. Firefighters and emergency services personnel from across Australia will take on the 2023 @melbournefirefighterstairclimb in support of Peter Mac. Country Fire Authority (CFA) Volunteer Firefighter, Tom Prunty, will be taking on the climb in honour of his brother, Connor, who was treated for bowel cancer at Peter Mac and sadly died in 2022. Tom credits his brother with inspiring him to join Buninyong-Mt Helen Fire Brigade, and will be carrying Connor’s helmet up the Crown Metropol with him on Saturday.
