On Friday 23 May, we were honoured to have the company of 450 guests to mark a significant milestone - 35 years of our program - and celebrate our annual Dream Ball at the Noble Dining Room in the Sydney Cricket Ground.
Thanks to the overwhelming support of our event guests and our wider community, the evening saw over $360,000 raised - an increase on last years fundraising total and vital funding that will allow more than 3,600 women, men and young adults undergoing cancer treatment across the country to access the Look Good Feel Better program over the coming year.
As Look Good Feel Better General Manager, Carol Kavurma said on the evening, "The cosmetic industry, our retail partners and our wider community have supported Look Good Feel Better for 35 years by providing the funds, volunteers and products for our Confidence Kits, for which we are extremely grateful - as are our program participants. Our program receives no government funding, so without that level of commitment and support from all of you, we simply wouldn’t be here.
Our support is available to any woman, man, teen, or young adult who is diagnosed with any type of cancer, receiving any type of treatment. Our help is available in every state and territory across the country. And our help is free. All thanks to you."
We thank all who joined us for the night or supported from afar. Check out our gallery of images from the night!
