Story
On 11th November 2016, our beloved Mum began her pancreatic cancer journey. A much-loved wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, aunt, cousin and friend whose life touched many. During her journey, she drew strength from her Faith, Family and Friends.
After 11 months, On the 9th of October 2017, Mum passed away peacefully surrounded by her devoted husband and loving family. We cried, laughed and remembered our treasured moments with her until we watched the sunrise together. As the sun rose, we remembered how she used to sing, ‘Oh what a beautiful morning’ to wake us. We are so grateful for the gift of her in our lives and we will continue to always feel her love and positivity each day.
The fight against this devastating illness is not over however, it has just begun and we look forward to doing our part to help support cancer research in her honour.
In 2019 in excess of 3,100 Australians are estimated to be diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer. Only 8.8% of Pancreatic Cancer patients survive more than five years, and the median survival rate is between three and six months.
The Avner Pancreatic Cancer Foundation is the only foundation in Australia dedicated exclusively to Pancreatic Cancer. It is named after Avner Nahmani who was diagnosed with incurable, inoperable Pancreatic Cancer in September 2007 and died thirteen months later. Like many others who have experienced this disease or witnessed it taking hold of a loved one, Avner, and his wife Caroline, wanted to raise money for this chronically underfunded disease and be able to offer future patients hopes of a better outcome.
The Vision of the Foundation is - "To break through 40 years of no progress by doubling the number of people who survive Pancreatic Cancer by 2020"
I am aiming to raise money to assist the Avner Foundation in achieving this vision and I welcome any contribution, great or small, that you can make!

PanKind Australian Pancreatic Cancer Foundation Limited
Pankind’s mission is to triple the pancreatic cancer survival rate by 2030 and significantly improve the quality of life for those impacted by the disease.
Together with our partners and community, we’re confronting pancreatic cancer head-on. Making progress a reality through groundbreaking research, compassionate support, and tireless advocacy. Because when the stakes are this high, action isn’t just important—it’s essential and urgent.
Pancreatic cancer is the toughest common cancer, and for too long, progress has lagged behind. Survival rates have barely improved in decades, leaving people diagnosed feeling overwhelmed and uncertain. We’re determined to change this. We are the only Australian organisation solely dedicated to improving outcomes for those affected by pancreatic cancer.
