Bainesey’s Circle of Strength

Share this page

We're taking on an epic challenge this October – and we need your support.

In dedication and support for our dear friend Amie Baines, we’ll be walking 58km for the 58 Aussies diagnosed with breast cancer every day. And to help find the next breast cancer breakthrough.

Will you donate to support our challenge, and help us reach our fundraising goal?

You’ll fund world-class cancer research, prevention programs, and support services at Cancer Council, to support people affected by cancer before, during and after treatment.

Cancer Council is Australia’s leading cancer charity working across every aspect of every cancer. They support families affected by cancer when they need it most, speak out on behalf of the community on cancer issues, empower people to reduce their cancer risk, and find new ways to better detect and treat cancer. With your help, we can get closer to a cancer free future.

Amie is a much loved mother, daughter, sister and aunt to all our kids. The best kind of friends are those that turn into family and she is just that, she’s our sister.  A kind, caring fun loving girl that has a heart of gold.

After a shock diagnosis just days before Christmas last year, Amie has faced the challenging journey through chemo, surgery and hospital visits tackling each and every day with such courage and determination. Through every treatment and every difficult day, she has had the incredible support of Eldin and their beautiful kids, her family, and her nearest and dearest friends.

We are approaching the home stretch, and we can't wait to see Amie cross that finish line. When she does, there will be one epic celebration.

But we also know that not everyone going through breast cancer has the same support network around them. That's why we want to turn our support for Amie into something bigger — helping others facing breast cancer and raising some much needed funds to assist with cancer research and support. 

It’s all of us against cancer.

Are you with us? Please donate to this cause that means so much to us.

Thank you to our supporters
