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!
I have decided to make a difference by creating my very own fundraising page for Melanoma March.
I have personally benefitted from lifesaving immunotherapy trials conducted by the Melanoma Institute.
In 2014 I was diagnosed with terminal Stage IV Melanoma and given an average life expectancy of 18 months. I commenced my immunotherapy combination of Yervoy and Keytruda in January 2015 concluding in November 2016.
After nine years I still visit the Melanoma Institute every six months for MRI and CT scans and annual PET scans under the care of 2024 co-Australian of the Year, Professor Georgina Long. So far I remain Melanoma free thanks to the dedication of the team at the Melanoma Institute who saved my life.
Through this page you can easily support the Melanoma Institute Australia’s life-saving research with the goal of 100% of Melanoma sufferers’ lives saved . I would also really appreciate it if you could share my page or comment so more people know about it.
