The Braybrook Community Hub is once again rallying the local community together to help make a difference to Australians affected by cancer.
The Cancer Council reports that almost one in two Australians are diagnosed with cancer before the age of 85. And they are on a mission to change that statistic.
The hub is preparing to host its annual Biggest Morning Tea on May 22, with a fundraising goal of $500.
Braybrook Community Hub team member Saida Mohamed said the team hosts a morning tea every year with the aim to raise awareness of the vital work being undertaken by the Cancer Council.
“The highlight of the morning tea each year is just chatting with different people,” Saida said.
“Some of the people that come are going through cancer themselves or have a family member who is. Just talking with each other is the highlight.”
The event, which will run from 10am-2pm at 107-139 Churchill Avenue, Braybrook, invites the entire community to join. Attendees can expect a delicious spread of homemade treats generously provided by staff members of the hub.
For those unable to attend in person but still eager to contribute, donations can be made online at shorturl.at/gqvC8.
