On Thursday 10 October 2024, the re-launch of our NSW Annual Charity Event was hosted. It was a day filled with purpose and community spirit, with the event taking place on the rooftop of the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia (MCA), offering views of the harbour and Circular Quay.
Members, staff, and guests enjoyed a two-course meal while listening to inspiring speakers. The afternoon was hosted by Chartered Accountants Australia and New Zealand (CA ANZ), Australian Manager for Public Affairs, Gillian Bowen, who kept the energy high, and the audience engaged.
The audience had the privilege of hearing from Professor Nehmat Houssami on her recent breast cancer research funded by the National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF).
Additionally, Colette Chase, Community Ambassador for NBCF, moved the room with her touching and inspirational story about her personal journey with breast cancer.
The event featured a lively Q&A panel with NBCF’s CEO Associate Professor Cleola Anderiesz, CA ANZ President Tinashe Kamangira FCA, and CA ANZ Group Executive for General Counsel and Corporate Assurance, Vanessa Chapman. Their insights and personal experiences added immense value to the discussion.
The heartfelt stories and shared experiences deeply moved everyone, highlighting the importance of our cause. A raffle draw with fantastic prizes from our generous sponsors capped off the afternoon, leaving everyone with joy and gratitude.
Thank you to those who attended the event, and those who donated. As an Everybody Counts Partner, CA ANZ, with your help, successfully raised $9,271 for the National Breast Cancer Foundation. Your support is invaluable in our ongoing efforts towards NBCF’s vision of Zero Deaths from breast cancer.
