THE big, blow-up “Pink Lady” at the entrance to Gandel Hall, at the National Gallery of Australia, was a spectacular and potent symbol, and a perfect welcome for the inaugural Breast Cancer Network Australia (BCNA) Pink Lady Luncheon, which was a stunning success.

With the support of its event partner Konica Minolta, BCNA called on lots of local organisations to help with the lunch. This incredible network of volunteers was what convinced David Cooke, MD of Konica Minolta, to take the advice of his employees and put BCNA into the chosen group of NFP’s for their support priorities.

Guest speaker was Kathryn Fagg, a lady with formidable career achievements and a self-effacing attitude who happens to be a BCNA board member, Reserve Bank board member and a breast cancer survivor.

Yes, they’re everywhere; monies raised will help to increase the survival rate.
