Today is International Charity Day đź©·

This is what community looks like.

Every event, every fundraiser, every volunteer, every sponsor and every person who shows up helps make a difference for local people and families affected by breast cancer.

These moments are a reminder that when our community comes together, we can create real impact. Whether you've attended an event, donated, volunteered, fundraised or simply shared our mission, thank you for being part of it.

Together, we're helping ensure no one in our community has to face breast cancer alone.

When you’re going through breast cancer, everyday tasks can feel like a lot.

That’s why we provide practical support, including professional house cleaning, to help families take some of the pressure off and focus on their health and wellbeing.

Because having a little extra support can make a big difference.

Thank you to Orica for supporting our Cleaning Program!

For 27 years, Hunter Breast Cancer Foundation has been supporting local families through one of life’s toughest journeys.

Every service we provide is made possible by the generosity of our incredible community. Thank you to every volunteer, supporter, sponsor, donor and community member who has been part of our journey over the past 27 years. Here's to continuing to make a difference together. đź’•

How has it already been 5 weeks since our Pink Race Day???

Looking back on a day that was truly one for the books, our biggest Pink Race Day fundraiser to date!

From the sea of pink filling Newcastle Racecourse, to the incredible generosity, laughter, support and stories shared throughout the day, we’re still feeling so grateful for everyone who came together to make it so special.

Every ticket purchased, donation made, sponsor supported and volunteer hour given helps us continue providing vital support services to people in our community living with breast cancer.

Thank you to everyone who helped make Pink Race Day 2026 our biggest and brightest yet đź’•
