Berwick Pharmacy is encouraging Geelong locals to join the Fight Cancer Foundation team and fight cancer this year with a Footy Colours Day fundraiser.

During the month of September, Aussies are encouraged to show their true colours in support of children with cancer.

With more than 800 Australian children and young people diagnosed with cancer every year, Footy Colours Day raises much needed funds for Fight Cancer Foundation’s education support programs across Australia.

On Friday 7 September, staff from Berwick and Eden Rise Pharmacy’s, along with Liberal State Member for Gembrook, Brad Battin, will celebrate Footy Colours Day and raise funds for Fight Cancer Foundation.

There will be raffles, jelly bean jar competitions, colouring competitions, a secondhand book stall and other hampers on offer – with all proceeds going to Fight Cancer Foundation.
