The 2011 Foundation Reception

The 2011 Foundation Reception will take place in Saturday 7th May at Tynan Mercedes in Miranda....and it's going to be a real cracker.

The Foundation has been away from our heartland for two years and in 2011 we coming back with a BANG. In 2009 we were at Kirribilli House as guests of the Prime Minister's Department and in 2010 we were guests of the Premier of NSW at Government House in Sydney's Botanical Gardens.

Finally we are coming home.

There are only 30 tables available. Get in quick to avoid major disappointment. Tickets to the event are $150 or $1500 for a table of 10. To secure the hottest ticket in town please call the Event Manager, Alex on 02 9952 1432 or click here to drop Alex an email.

The 2009 Foundation Reception at Kirribilli House

In April 2009 the Foundation’s 2nd annual foundation reception took place at Kirribilli House, the Sydney residence of the Prime Minister of Australia. The Office of the Prime Minister invited the Foundation to Kirribilli House and Hon Robert McClelland, Federal Member for Barton and Attorney General of Australia, hosted the evening.

The evening was a huge success with Robert McClelland and Hon Nathan Rees, Premier of New South Wales, both offering their support to the Foundation and both awarding grants to medical researchers at St George Hospital.

The Reception also saw the awarding of the Paul Campbell Memorial Grant for Medical Research. This award was made in honour of Mr. Paul Campbell who died as a result of cancer at St George Hospital in 2008. Paul’s wife, Colleen Campbell, attended the Reception to see the award being made.

The Reception raised in excess of $50,000 – funds that will be awarded to medical researcher projects during the Foundation’s main funding round in November 2009.
