A heartfelt thank you to everyone who attended our ‘For a Kinder Tomorrow’ Brisbane fundraising lunch. Your presence and generosity made the event!

Together, we:

Raised awareness and hope
Funded much-needed research, raising an incredible $880,000 – in addition to the $380,000 raised from event sales and donations, a separate lump sum of $500,000 was also donated to go towards vulvar cancer research by a long-term Cherish supporter with a vision for a kinder tomorrow.
Strengthened our kind and compassionate community.

Your support means the world to us and to countless women and girls who will benefit from kinder treatments.

Thank you again to our sponsor and supporters too!

Let’s continue working towards a brighter, kinder tomorrow. Enjoy the photos, tag your friends, and see you at the next event!

Cherish’s Fundraising Lunch ‘For a Kinder tomorrow’ raises funds to support medical research to make transformative impact and save the lives of future generations facing a gynaecological cancer diagnosis. We can’t change the cancer diagnosis, but we are committed to creating a kinder tomorrow by funding vital clinical trials and research to find causes, prevention, and gentler treatment options for future generations. Cherish the women you love – help us to create a kinder tomorrow.

Thank you to our 2024 For a Kinder tomorrow sponsors and partners.
