Pluto Pink PanthersIn 2011 Joanne from Karratha WA headed the Pluto Pink Panthers and raised over $19,000 through community fundraising.

"As soon as I read an email about the MDC in Karratha I knew It was an opportunity for me to do my part in raising money for breast cancer research.

"Who would have thought fundraising could be so much fun. The old fashioned way of holding morning teas, a lolly guessing competition and Bake offs were a great success but the biggest money raised came from standing in the rain with buckets in hand, getting coin donations from 5000 generous workers as they came through the site gates.

"Although I have not been affected by this disease, so many women have, and if we all play a small part in raising funds, they may one day find a cure. I will be involved again this year and I am hoping that the generous people of Karratha will get behind me in my effort to beat last years total."
