About this event
Cause
Pancreatic cancer takes 78 lives every week in Australia, making it the 3rd biggest cancer killer of Australians. Remember SEPTEMBER is a movement dedicated to honouring loved ones lost to pancreatic cancer and supporting those impacted by the disease. By participating in this virtual challenge, you will help Pankind fund groundbreaking pancreatic cancer research to detect the disease earlier, develop more effective treatments, and ultimately change lives. Since 2008, Pankind has invested over $20.2 million across 89 high-calibre research projects spanning 21 universities and institutions, funding some of Australia's top research talent.
What to Expect
Remember SEPTEMBER offers two flexible challenges for September: Move It — Walk 78km over the month to honour those we've lost. Give It Up — Give up a vice of your choosing, such as caffeine or sugar, as a personal sacrifice and show of support. Whether you choose to walk, give up a vice, or combine both, you'll be joining a community of thousands united by purpose. Participants track their progress through the Remember SEPTEMBER app and connect with others, share their stories, and celebrate milestones together. The event builds community around a shared mission to fight pancreatic cancer.
