Bowel Cancer Australia eNews: We're counting down to June!

This June, we need your help to raise
awareness of and funds for people impacted
by Australia’s second deadliest cancer.

Bowel cancer is a leading cause of underlying death for Australians aged 25-84 and early-onset bowel cancer is on the rise.

101 people die every week of bowel cancer, and over 39 Australians are diagnosed with the disease every day; that's 14,534 people each year.

While almost 99% of bowel cancer cases can be successfully treated if found early, fewer than 50% are.

With only two months to go until Bowel Cancer Australia's signature awareness and fundraising campaign, the countdown has begun.

There are many ways to get involved,so let's start planning and see what we can accomplish together!

Now is the time to get creative and start planning your fundraiser!

Why not take your fundraising online? Create a page, invite friends and family to support you, and share your progress.

Raise over $200 and we’ll send a free pair of bum shorts to help you stand out from the crowd.

Red Apple Day (Wednesday, 18 June) is our Annual Giving Day, when Australians are encouraged to support the vital work of Bowel Cancer Australia.

If you've ever thought about raising funds and awareness then Red Apple Day is the time to do it!

Share your support and start up a conversation this June by wearing a Bowel Cancer Awareness Ribbon.

You can also purchase a display box of 30 to sell to friends and colleagues.

Alternatively, you can send, dedicate, or buy a virtual ribbon to be displayed on our virtual apple tree.

We’ve got you covered with new merchandise and free awareness resources.

Be sure to connect with us on our social channels and share our posts to help challenge perceptions and motivate action.

Since 2011, Bowel Cancer Australia has provided specialist telehealth support services tailored to the unique needs of people impacted by bowel cancer throughout the country.

Email, call or video chat with one of our friendly Bowel Care Specialist Support team members.

Thanks to your advocacy, fundraising and support, we're making an impact!

As the leading community-funded national charity we continue to champion what matters most to people impact by bowel cancer and empower everyone affected to live their best life.
