| Be the messenger and help raise awareness of Australia’s second deadliest cancer.
Bowel cancer claims the lives of 103 Australians every week - but it's treatable and beatable if found early.
We’ve got you covered with our free awareness resources which you can distribute to friends, family and colleagues. If you want to create even more noise, gather a crowd, either in-person or via Zoom, and arrange a Rear in Gear workplace or community presentation. And be sure to connect with us on our social channels and share, regram and tweet our posts to help challenge perceptions and motivate action. If not you, then who? Submit and share your lived-experience to find strength in connections and to help create a powerful voice for change. |

| Now is the time to get creative and start planning your fundraiser. Whether it's a brunch, trivia night or a dress up/down day – the options are endless, and ideas are only limited by your imagination! Why not take your fundraising online? Create a page, invite your friends and family to support your event, share your progress as you track your target, and view messages of support.
Raise over $200 and you’ll not only be the apple of our eye, we’ll send a FREE pair of bum shorts to help you stand out from the crowd. You can also show your support this June by wearing a Bowel Cancer Awareness Ribbon or even better, grab yourself a display box of 30 ribbons and sell them to raise funds and awareness. Alternatively, you can send, dedicate, or buy a virtual ribbon and display it on our virtual apple tree. |
