About the Halloween Ball and why The Brain Cancer Centre?
The Halloween Ball is the brainchild of Tara and Tim Hawken. Initially called The Bloodsuckers Ball, supporting malaria prevention, the idea evolved to support something closer to Tara and Tim’s hearts.
At age 29, Tara was diagnosed with a malignant brain tumour and was given 2-5 years to live. That was now 14 years ago. She’s healthier than ever thanks to a lot of help from doctors and plenty of personal hard work.
Unfortunately, Tara is the exception.Someone is diagnosed with brain cancer every five hours in Australia. Less than 20% of those people will survive beyond 5 years.
A lot more research needs to be done to ensure Tara’s ‘miracle’ outcome is no longer a miracle.
The Brain Cancer Centre was founded by Carrie’s Beanies 4 Brain Cancer with a vision that one day no lives are lost to brain cancer. They work tirelessly to build collaborations and drive the research that will improve treatment options and survival rates for brain cancer patients. Together we will end brain cancer as a terminal illness and create a brighter future for patients and their families.
Come join us at The Brain Eaters Ball.
