There’s a place for you in the MDC volunteer community
There are many ways to get involved. You might join us for a few hours on Event Day, use your skills and local knowledge as part of an Event Committee, represent MDC as a Community Ambassador, or take part in other opportunities throughout the year.
Whether you're volunteering for the first time or have been part of MDC for many years, you'll be joining a community of people contributing their time, skills and energy to make a difference.

- make a meaningful contribution to breast and ovarian cancer research

Hi, I'm Rosa...
Losing my mum to breast cancer in 1991 was the main reason I started volunteering for the Mother's Day Classic over 15 years ago. I loved making a difference in helping fund research.
Little did I know I would become a breast cancer survivor myself. I love that my girls Adrianna and Carla and some close friends now join me. I love the finish line watching families, survivors and supporters coming through with big smiles.
