As you may or may not know it is prostate cancer awareness month (September), this is similar to other events such as Movember which occur throughout the year.
Prostate cancer affects 1 in 3 men in Australia, this statistic is huge, 20,000 men are diagnosed with prostate cancer every year. This may seem irrelevant or distant for some of the members on this site as we are all young and healthy but our loved ones, fathers, relatives and friends are the ones that are affected. The aim is to increase research and awareness as it can be treated if found early.
As this site is Male dominated it affects all of us in some way or another and we all a have a prostate, a fact we cant ignore.

SO from this I’am looking for anyone that is interested in making a donation to such a worthwhile charity. This is an event run directly from school which we are aiming to raise as much money as possible.
If you are interested in donating I can provide a postal address where you can enclose a cheque written out to the Prostate Cancer Foundation. If you donate over $10 I will post a receipt, which you can claim back this amount from the government, so it is a win, win situation. When I post your receipt back I will include a badge to show your support.
Also the amount raised by the site will be announced and the forum will be announced as a sponsor in a full school assembly giving advertising and recognition to the site.
An event registration number can be provided and checked by calling the foundation to confirm the legitimacy of the event.
If you are interested in donating please PM for address details, any support from these forums is greatly appreciated.
