The Stawell Gift and McGrath Foundation have joined forces to present an inaugural Stawell Gift Virtual Pink Sprint to raise money for families experiencing breast cancer.

People will support the money-raiser and receive a spot on a virtual start line of the Stawell Gift Virtual Pink Sprint with a $10 donation.

They also have a chance to win a ‘VIP experience’ at the 2022 Powercor Stawell Gift carnival.

Stawell Gift event management chair Stephanie Spence said organisers were delighted to be working with the McGrath Foundation and encouraged fans to support the concept.

“The Stawell Gift Virtual Pink Sprint is an easy, fun way for everyone to contribute to the incredible work of the McGrath Foundation. It’s also a great opportunity to win a money-
can’t-buy experience at the 2022 Powercor Stawell Gift,” she said.

The McGrath Foundation raises money to place specialist McGrath Breast Care Nurses into areas they are needed across Australia.

McGrath Foundation chief marketing and revenue officer Ryan Barlow said participation in the virtual pink sprint would help ensure 162 McGrath Breast Care Nurses could provide support in communities.

People can be part of the Stawell Gift Virtual Pink Sprint by donating online at virtualpinksprint.com.au.

The VIP experience for two people includes four nights of accommodation, entry to Stawell’s Central Park for the duration of the three-day event,  an exclusive walk up the 120m Stawell Gift track with photos taken under the finish gantry, merchandise packs and two tickets to the Stawell Athletic Club president’s function.
