Support my efforts in the 2024 Mother’s Day Classic!

In 2024, the Mother’s Day Classic Foundation (MDCF) will partner with the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation (OCRF) to become their second national women’s cancer cause, alongside the National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF). With an Australia-wide presence, a long-standing legacy, exemplary funding history and multiple physical events in each state, this new partnership will move the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation onto a national stage. 

On Saturday 18 May, I'm putting my foot down to save lives.

I'll be lacing up my running shoes and taking a step forward for women's cancer research, and I'd really love your support!

Walk With Women is the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation’s (OCRF) original fundraising walk event, which was the brainchild of OCRF Ambassador and friend, Helen Powell.

Helen began the walk in 2016 following her own diagnosis with ovarian cancer. In that first year, she and just 6 close friends walked a 30km-length course along the picturesque Mornington Peninsula, stretching from Safety Beach Sailing Club to Hotel Sorrento.

Known in its first six years as the Wonder Woman Walk, Helen’s walk was renamed Walk With Women upon becoming an official event of the OCRF in 2022.

From 2024, with an altered course this special walk will continue to honour Helen’s legacy as it steps into the Mother’s Day Classic.

Supporting ovarian cancer research is essential to lifting survival rates and creating a better future for generations of women to come.

I’m asking you to do more than just stand with me but to support me as I walk, run, and move till we’re done. 

Please make a donation today to support my challenge. There’s only one way to stop breast and ovarian cancers - together!
