THE Mid North Coast Cancer Institute (MNCCI) nursing team is rallying the community with a new fundraiser for the Hastings Cancer Trust (HCT), on Sunday 12 October.
Kirsty Baxter, HCT board member and nurse at the MNCCI in Port Macquarie, said the Trust has always been a vital support.
“The HCT are such active fundraisers and are always receptive of our requests during the grant period when we apply for additional equipment, supportive care therapy and projects to make our cancer patients, families and carers treatment journey less stressful,” Kirsty said.
This year, the nursing team wanted to give back by organising their own fundraiser.
“We have had so many local businesses come forward to donate prizes and experiences for this event – it has been overwhelming.”
The event, Trivia & Tee-Off, will be fully sponsored by Holy Goat Coffee and held exclusively at X-Golf Port Macquarie.
“This one-of-a-kind event combines fast-paced trivia and thrilling golf simulator challenges – fun for all ages and skill levels.
“Whether you’re testing your knowledge in rapid-fire rounds or aiming for the longest drive, your participation helps support better outcomes for cancer patients and their families in our community.
“Trivia & Tee-Off brings together brain power and golf precision in an unforgettable fundraiser for the Hastings Cancer Trust – because nothing beats locals supporting locals.”
Trivia & Tee-Off will take place on Sunday 12 October from 2pm to 6pm at X-Golf Port Macquarie, with all proceeds going directly to the Hastings Cancer Trust.
