Support Breast Cancer Awareness at Deepwater Plaza
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and Deepwater Plaza is committed to supporting this important cause.
Breast Cancer Awareness Month (BCAM) takes place every October. The aim of the BCAM is to shine a light on the devastating impact breast cancer has on thousands of Australians each day.
Every year over 21,000 people in Australia (including around 200 men) will be diagnosed with breast cancer.
Every day 58 people in Australia will be diagnosed with breast cancer.
Every year over 3,300 people in Australia (including 33 men) will die from breast cancer. That’s someone’s mother, sister, friend or family member whose life has been tragically cut short because of the disease.
Although the five-year survival rate has increased from 76% to 92% (and rising) since 1994 thanks to research, there is still progress to be made to stop deaths from breast cancer. By targeting the remaining 8% who don’t live past this survival rate, NBCF’s goal is to reach Zero Deaths from breast cancer.
If you want to host a fundraising breakfast or morning tea, you can purchase your goodies from Bakers Delight, Coles Supermarket, or The Reject Shop.
If you’re looking for something extra special, Kings Baked is creating delicious cupcakes and sweet treats specifically for our fundraising event.
Every dollar raised will go towards supporting breast cancer research, prevention, and treatment. Let’s come together as a community at Deepwater Plaza and show our support for this important cause.
