The Tasmanian Cancer Challenge Ride
Graeme Milburn's 29th Annual Ride
Graeme Milburn AM, O.A.M, a cyclist from Devonport, is on his 29th ride around Tasmania in a continuing effort to raise funds for cancer research here in Tasmania. Each year the charity event aims to raise both awareness of cancer and money for cancer research in this state.
For 29 years Graeme has been riding around the state in the name of cancer research for Tasmania. Not a small achievement by any stretch of the imagination; it represents years of dedication and hard work. Not to mention the many people that have come along for the ride.
Statistic show that one in two men and one in three women will be diagnosed with cancer by the age of 85 years. That means that cancer will affect almost every family in some way or another. It is therefore vital that we invest in research to eliminate this dreadful disease.
Join the Party - Help Us Make $25,000
Over the past 28 years, we have raised $592,080.00 for cancer research in Tasmania and hope to add another $25,000.00 to this total in 2010.
There are lots of ways you can get involved. The simplest way is to donate some money. You can do this when Graeme passes through your home town (dates and places are listed here) or via mail (see Donation Box in column to the left).
The Cancer Challenge ride is once a year, but donations are accepted all year round.
