Despite challenging circumstances, the OC community rallied together on Saturday to raise a record total of over $2,000 for the McGrath Foundation at this year's Pink Stumps Day.
Each year, our cricket teams don pink and hit the pitch in support of the McGrath Foundation, while the OC Cricket Support Group bake and sell cupcakes to raise money for McGrath Breast Care Nurses who provide invaluable support and care to those experiencing breast cancer.
This year, due to weather and pitch conditions, the cricket teams were unfortunately not able to play on the day. However, in true OC spirit, the cricketers showed up in their whites to sell the cupcakes themselves and show their support for the other teams.
We sincerely thank all who donated, fundraised, baked, coordinated and supported this event. These efforts help place specialist McGrath Breast Care Nurses wherever they are needed, so they can continue to support families through expert knowledge, personal care and genuine compassion.
