Driving for a Cause: Old Blokes Driving for a Cancer Cure

In the battle against cancer, a remarkable group of individuals has come together with a shared purpose: to raise funds and increase awareness for cancer research. This inspiring collective comprises car enthusiasts who have dedicated themselves to supporting the Australian Cancer Research Foundation (ACRF) and its mission to conquer all types of cancer. Among them are Harry Moustakas, Nick Harris, Michael Skyllas, John Assarapin, and Bob Hickman, who have channeled their passion and personal experiences of losing friends and family members into a formidable force for change.

The ACRF is making significant strides in the battle against cancer by providing scientists with the necessary tools and technology to push the boundaries of research. By investing in innovative projects, they aim to improve prevention, detection, and treatment methods across the country. It is through the generosity of individuals like these car enthusiasts that the ACRF can continue to back pioneering research efforts.

Revving up their engines and ready to make a difference, this group of car enthusiasts embarked on an epic five-day road trip in late April, all in the name of cancer fundraising. These dedicated blokes are going the extra mile, quite literally, as they personally fund this exhilarating journey and organize a charity event to amplify their fundraising efforts. Their mycause fundraising page has already garnered over $34,000 in donations for cancer fundraising, a testament to the incredible support they have received.

In a show of solidarity, the group invites everyone to join them at the Old Blokes Driving for a Cancer Cure Fundraiser event on Friday, June 2, 2023. The event, to be held at Doltone House in Sylvania Waters, promises an evening filled with meaningful connections and support for the cause. Attendees will be treated to a delightful experience, including canapes on arrival, a three-course meal, and a selection of beverages. The night will be filled with entertainment, courtesy of a talented DJ, and opportunities to participate in auctions and raffles. It is worth noting that the dress code for the event is cocktail attire.

All profits generated from the event will go directly to the Australian Cancer Research Foundation. By attending the fundraiser, individuals not only contribute to a cancer fundraising charity, but also become a part of a collective effort to combat cancer and improve the lives of those affected by this devastating disease.

The dedication and determination of these car enthusiasts are commendable. Their initiative to raise funds and awareness for cancer research through the Australian Cancer Research Foundation showcases the many ways people can fundraise for cancer. By supporting their cause, we can all play a role in driving toward a future where cancer is no longer a threat.
