At Buttercups Childcare, we recognise how deeply cancer can affect families and communities. This year, all our centres across Perth are once again proud to take part in Australia’s Biggest Morning Tea in support of Cancer Council, helping raise vital funds for cancer research, support services, prevention programs, and advocacy.
This year, Managing Director Steve Goldsworthy and Buttercups will boost every dollar raised so that each $1 becomes $5, up to $5,000 in donations, with the potential to raise $25,000 in total impact.
Managing Director Steve Goldsworthy shared his personal connection to the cause. “Cancer has had a profound impact on my family. My mother, two aunties, and cousin have all battled breast cancer. My aunties and cousin survived, but my mum sadly passed away after her third round of cancer that spread to her brain. This is why this cause is so meaningful to me and why we’re committed to making every dollar count.” Said Steve.
Funds raised during the event will go towards supporting Cancer Council’s essential work:
- $150 can help pay for the collection and storage of a tumour sample used in cancer prevention and detection studies.
- $250 can provide a week of scholarship funding for a PhD research student or support a lab assistant for a day.
- $500 can help train leaders of cancer support groups, offering emotional support to those affected.
- $1,000 can enable Cancer Council’s health professionals to provide information and practical support to 15 people affected by cancer.
- $5,000 can fund educational initiatives that raise awareness about breast, bowel, and cervical cancer screenings.
Community members are invited to support the fundraiser by donating via the dedicated online fundraising page. With Buttercups Childcare and Managing Director Steve Goldsworthy matching donations, every contribution will go even further in supporting Australians impacted by cancer.
Every dollar raised helps fund vital cancer research, prevention programs, and support services for individuals and families facing cancer. Together, we can make a meaningful difference in the lives of those affected while helping create hope for future generations.
