The mayor’s next charity gala dinner will have a “western’’ theme. And it has been announced that the fundraising night of entertainment and fun will support the award winning Macarthur Cancer Therapy Centre.
It will be held at Ottimo House on Saturday, March 4, 2023.
Sponsorship opportunities and tickets are now available to support the event and help raise funds to purchase a new scalp-cooling machine and chemotherapy chair for the Cancer Therapy Centre.
The 2023 event will coincide with the 20th anniversary of the centre.
“The doctors and nurses at the Macarthur Cancer Therapy Centre have provided a vital service to thousands of people across the region over the past 20 years,” says Campbelltown Mayor George Greiss.
“That’s why I’m delighted to announce the therapy centre as the recipient for my charity gala dinner and I call on our generous local business community to once again step up and help raise funds for this important equipment,” Cr Greiss said.
“It promises to be a great evening of food, drinks and entertainment as well as an opportunity to celebrate the tireless work of the medical professionals in our region,” he said.
Over the past year, the Macarthur Cancer Therapy Centre saw 5077 patients, a 5.4 percent increase from the previous year, while more than 49,000 treatments were administered.
Macarthur Cancer Therapy Centre director Dr Annette Tognela thanked Cr Greiss and Campbelltown Council for their support.
“We are thrilled the mayor’s charity dinner will be supporting our centre, and we are looking forward to a fantastic event,’’ Dr Tognela said.
Tickets are $150 per person or $1400 for a table of 10 people. Details on Campbelltown Council’s website.
