Riverdowns 2025

By Michelle McAteer-Ross

I’m helping raise vital funds for breast cancer education, research and patient support.

Every year 3,500 Kiwis are diagnosed with breast cancer, and more than 650 will die.

By fundraising for Breast Cancer Foundation NZ, I’m helping fund –

  1. Ground-breaking projects by some of our countries top researchers
  2. Education about breast health, the importance of regular screening and the signs and symptoms of breast cancer
  3. Free support services for breast cancer patients and their families

Donate today to help make zero deaths from breast cancer a reality.

RIVERDOWNS MUSIC FESTIVAL FUNDRAISER

Saturday 25th Jan
Hi wonderful supporters
This event is held annually to help promote, support and fundraise for the BCFNZ. 
As a survivor (Thriver) of this horrible disease, I know the impact that it has not only on the person with cancer but the ripple effect out to their friends and family.
The goal of BCFNZ is to have 0 deaths from Breast Cancer and the more resources they have - the closer they get to their goal.

Thank you to my Sponsors
