Greetings!
During the month of Frocktober I'll be frocking up EVERY DAY in support of the festive fundraising initiative aiming to raise funds for the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation (OCRF).
A striking statistic is that, across Australia, "One woman dies every ten hours from ovarian cancer…for many women with ovarian cancer, the disease is already well advanced when they are first diagnosed”.
Unfortunately, there is currently no screening test for ovarian cancer. Frocktober aims to help improve the outlook for women with the disease by supporting the quest for a suitable early detection test, through fundraising for the OCRF.
Through fun – and sometimes quirky – measures, Frocktober is all about:
• increasing the public's awareness of ovarian cancer and what it is
• promoting women's health & wellbeing
• celebrating the great diversity of shapes, sizes and colours women come in.
Essentially, Frocktober puts forward a challenge to girls, women and interested men far and wide: To don a frock for a day, week, fortnight or a full month during October, and get sponsored for it! It’s not just frocking up though, it’s about creating frocks, sourcing frocks through creative measures and in essence celebrating the frock in all its feminine glory...
Now that you know what I’ll be up to during Frocktober, there are several ways to sponsor me:
• Cash: just fill out my donation form when donating your money.
• On-line payment: visit www.frocktober.org, go to the 'donate' page and include my registration number in the confirmation page.
• Electronic Funds Transfer: Enter my registration number in the 'reference' field from your internet banking service. This will help track your payment.
Registration Number: 617821
Account name: Frocktober Inc
BSB 633000
Account number 134323187
• Cheque / Money Order: Please make payable to Frocktober Incorporated and post to Frocktober Inc, 10 Mulquiney Crescent, Highton VIC 3216.
In 2010, October is Frocktober...open up your hearts and wardrobes; it's a frockin' good cause!
Thanks for your time Guys <333
