Where do fundraising efforts go?
Each year we look forward to hosting The Treasure Chest Charity Men with Breast Intentions Gala Dinner and Spring Luncheon to raise awareness and funds for our cause.
Our funds go towards the care, reconstruction, support and empowerment of people in the public health system who want to know about options or choose to undergo breast reconstruction after their breast cancer treatment.
We work closely with the Royal Women's Hospital and Royal Melbourne Hospital to provide funds for equipment and resources.
Why we have chosen to help the Shared Breast Services of the Royal Women's and Royal Melbourne Hospitals:
- We recognise the vulnerability of women about to undergo or who are undergoing breast cancer reconstruction.
- Our charter is to provide funds to support services that consider the ‘whole’ person, and by doing so reduce the impact of the disease and its treatment.
- All illnesses have physical and psychological repercussions of some degree, however women who are about to undergo, or who have undergone breast surgery for cancer, are vulnerable to significant feelings of anxiety and loss; of their selfhood (identity), womanhood (sexuality), esteem and capacity to cope…and this is where Treasure Chest's work is most important.
