Fiona's Walk Ballarat High School - 11 SEP

(BHS) Fiona's Walk

Story

On Wednesday, September 11 2024, Ballarat High School Vocational Major students are organising a walkathon to raise funds for the Fiona Elsey Cancer Research Institute.
Fiona was a Year 8 student at Ballarat High School when she passed away with Ewing’s Sarcoma in 1991.
For many years Ballarat High School led Fiona’s Walk, an annual lap of the lake for schools in Ballarat to participate, remember Fiona and continue her legacy. After working closely with FECRI, students have been inspired to reintroduce this event and will be completing laps around a planned route at Ballarat High School on Wednesday, 11 September. Some will be walking in honour of loved ones impacted by cancer and others in memory of Fiona.
All funds raised through this page will be donated directly to the research program at the Institute.

Fiona Elsey Cancer Research Institute

The Fiona Elsey Cancer Research Institute is based in Ballarat and is Australia’s only regionally based cancer research centre. The research is focused on the role of the immune system, how it relates and can be used to treat cancer. It is hoped that by identifying these proteins on the surface of cancer cells, druggable targets can be developed to allow the immune system to attack the cancer, without chemotherapy and radiation. The research aims to help patients with a broad range of cancers – from Leukaemia, Bowel, Ovarian, Breast, Brain and Pancreato-Biliary cancers, as well as haematological cancers. Thank you for your support.
