BENEFICIARIES FOR DRY JULY 2009
Due to the overwhelming interest and support across Australia in 2008, in 2009 Dry July has become a national fundraising event. We invited 29 hospitals across Australia to complete and submit an expression of interest. Our chosen beneficiaries for DJ 09 have been selected on the merit of how and where funds raised would be distributed within their cancer departments, wards and units.
Dry July aims to raise funds for activities that have an immediate and direct positive effect to the lives of people living with cancer right across Australia.
Unfortunately we were unable to secure a beneficiary in Tasmania and the Northern Territory. Funds raised by participants in Tasmania will be directed to Victoria. Funds raised in the Northern Territory will be directed to South Australia.
Funds raised by our international participants will be split equally amongst the six State and Territory beneficiaries.
