Make every cup count and help improve the lives of people like Donna Streater
Donna Streater was only 37 years old when she was diagnosed with advanced bowel cancer. As she prepared for surgery, she also prepared to say goodbye to her family and friends. She would be leaving behind a loving husband and parents, three children, the youngest of which was only 2 years old, and a network of close childhood friends.
“As they wheeled me off for surgery I remember looking into their eyes and saying to myself ‘take a picture, take a picture of their faces, because you might not see them again.’”
But Donna survived. Thanks to not only her surgery and treatment, but also to the support and love she received from her family and friends.
Now, ten years on, Donna participates in Australia’s Biggest Morning Tea and hopes as many people throughout Australia will do so as well. So please help us in 2009 by making every cup count and register to become a host.
