Breast cancer is the most common cancer diagnosed in women in Australia and the most common cause of cancer death in Australian women. One in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer before the age of 85. In 2006, 312 women were diagnosed with breast cancer on the Sunshine Coast. Breast cancer is still killing and impacting far too many of our loved ones.

We need your help...your generosity ...to make a difference.

Grammar Helping Hands Gets Involved

On Saturday March 20, 2010 over 40 staff and students from Sunshine Coast Grammar School gave up their Saturday afternoon for yet another Grammar Helping Hands (GHH) backyard blitz, this time at the home of local couple Sandra and Phil Bailey of Nambour. 

The Foundation has been supporting Sandra who is currently undergoing chemotherapy for breast cancer. Husband Phil has been off work due to illness for some time, putting extra pressure on the couple, who have six children under the age of 19.

Inspired by programs such as "Random Acts of Kindness," Grammar Helping Hands is about servant leadership; giving time, not just money, and looking for opportunities to reach out to others who need a helping hand. Truly community helping community. You can read Liam Berneville-Claye's report here.

Thank you Grammar Helping Hands for bringing great joy to the Bailey family. You have a made a huge difference.
