Workplace Giving is a simple way to donate to charities direct from your pay, and get your donations matched. Most companies match donations, so you could double your impact, giving your charity even more support!
On Sunday 14 September I’ll be walking in the Bridge to Brisbane to raise funds for Choices – an organisation that has supported me through one of the hardest years of my life.
I first connected with Choices in October 2024 during a hospital stay for a lumpectomy. At the time, I was navigating deep grief after losing my sister to breast cancer just months earlier. That grief has been the hardest part of this journey, and it happened to coincide with my own diagnosis. Choices were there for me from the very beginning – supporting me through that grief as I faced further required surgeries, including a bilateral mastectomy.
What makes Choices so special is that they offer more than just information. They listen, they check in, and they create space for the messy, complicated feelings that come with a cancer diagnosis. Alongside this emotional support, they provide complementary therapies and well-being programs – from reflexology and yoga/gym to creative workshops and opportunities for connection with others who truly understand. Choices support anyone affected by cancer, making sure no one has to navigate the journey alone.
Now, I want to give back so others can experience the same care and connection I have. Even a small donation will make a big impact in helping Choices continue their incredible work and provide well-being programs for those who need them most.
Thank you so much for your support – it means the world. 💕
The funds you raise for The Wesley Hospital Choices Cancer Support Centre will provide free practical and emotional support for anyone affected by cancer – no matter where they are being treated. No one is ever prepared for cancer, but you can help support cancer patients and their loved ones through the emotional, difficult and stressful moments following diagnosis, during treatment and beyond. The funds you raise or donate can bring relief to a person living with cancer through practical support, counselling and expert advice. You can give someone their confidence back with wig services during chemotherapy or provide access to exercise and wellness programs through their treatment and recovery. Will you support the hundreds of people who need Choices? With the kind and generous support of people like you, more cancer patients can access specialist cancer nurses, peer support, counselling and complementary therapists, no matter where they are being treated. wesley.com.au/choices
