My Room "Care + Cure" 2020
It’s usually this time of the year when we finalise our table numbers and are “super excited” with anticipation for the annual My Room Gala Ball and Charity Auction, with over 1200 guest held at Crown Palladium.
Unfortunately this year, due to COVID-19 and social gathering restrictions, we have been forced to cancel our event. But this doesn’t mean that our work is done, or that Aussie families aren’t going to be touched by this horrible disease this year.
And so, in lieu of our annual event, My Room has instead launched the “Care + Cure” initiative in order to raise much needed funds to underpin the continuity of support for patients and their families during their cancer treatment journey – and of course, into the future.
We appreciate ALL your support in the years gone by and hope that you’ll stand alongside us this year in our fight. We kindly encourage you to forward this article to your usual guests and extended network so that they too can also support this important initiative.
The My Room Gala Ball’s financial success is crucial to our charity’s ongoing programs and funding required to achieve a 100% cure rate for all childhood cancers.
We appreciate that businesses and individuals are doing it tough this year, but we ask that if you are in a position to help My Room - to dig deep and help make a meaningful pledge. Every little (or big!) bit helps us get that little bit closer to our goal.
Although we can’t enjoy the main event together this year, we’ll still be charging our glasses on August 29th for the kids, albeit from our living rooms – please join us, wherever you may be, and let’s look to better times ahead when we can all be together again, raising our glasses together whilst raising the much needed funds to end this dreadful disease.
Children and their families battling childhood cancer still need charities like My Room and supporters like you. Our work isn’t done until we find a 100% cure rate for all childhood cancers. Not even a global pandemic is going to stop us! With your generosity and support, we can continue the fight together.

4 年Yes. We need as many of our supporters as possible behind us on this venture. It is a very unique venture for us at MY ROOM but not as difficult as the venture that all patients and families dealing with childhood cancer are on. So please help us to continue helping them. Remember WORKING TOGETHER WORKS ????????????????????
