This September for Prostate Cancer Awareness Month, I’m giving it all I’ve got by taking part in The Long Run! 

Prostate cancer is Australia’s leading cause of cancer, with 72 men newly diagnosed every day. My brother and I were both diagnosed very early and are hopefully cured. My uncle and my father-in-law were not so fortunate. I have many friends who are still living with it, including some here on Strawman.

Will you join our team, “Brothers in Arms” and donate today to raise funds for Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia and help end the pain of prostate cancer? Together, we can make prostate cancer history.

For one day only TELIX AND OTHER GENEROUS CORPORATE SPONSORS ARE MATCHING PERSONAL DONATIONS DOLLAR FOR DOLLAR IN “THE LONG RUN”

Telix have helped our team “Brothers in Arms” raise over $1000, twice our original target!

Please help us to stop prostate cancer in its tracks!

Thank you!

@Arizona i can’t take credit for getting TLX on board. Their support is very welcome though! :)

Fortunately I’ve been very lucky! I’m doing my bit to help others now!

Great stuff @Rick and more than happy to drop a few dollars in the bucket for the walk.

It's the least I can do after you went out of your way to DM me with an offer of assistance after you heard of my cancer/s ordeal.

Good luck with the funds raise and all future tests mate and good on Telix as well!!

Good morning Strawman community! I just wanted to express my sincere gratitude for your generous support for team “Brothers in Arms”. We are just one team amongst a much wider effort that has so far raised over $1.2 million this September to fund research to eradicate prostate cancer. Strawman community, you can be extremely proud of your efforts! You have done the heavy lifting to raise over $5000 for team “Brothers in Arms”, putting the team at #18 on the national leaderboard! Thank you! https://www.thelongrun.org.au/fundraisers/brothersinarms

Great effort Rick. I was only too happy to help, as I'm sure the rest of the SM community were as well.
