Everybody cut Footloose for Joanie's 50th Birthday (IMAX fundraiser)

By Joanie Somerville

A Very Special Evening for a Very Special Woman

After bringing in nearly $9,000 captaining Walking Stars team Diamonds in the Sky back in 2021, Joanie is BACK to celebrate her 50th birthday 80s style and, in the process, raise more funds for this incredibly worthy cause. 

If you're able to attend this event, please secure your ticket here: 
https://www.trybooking.com/CRMCU (available until Tuesday 14 May)

All proceeds from the night will be donated collectively via this page the following day (Wednesday 22 May).

If you're unable to attend but still wish to show your support, please consider donating directly to this page.

I’m fundraising for Cancer Council Victoria to help stop cancer.

Every year more than 35,000 Victorians hear the words ‘you have cancer’.

Thanks in part to generous Victorians, 7 in 10 of them will survive five years after a cancer diagnosis, but there’s still so much work to be done.

Cancer Council needs our support more than ever this year. Every dollar raised gives hope for a cancer free future. By supporting my event, you’re funding life-saving cancer treatments, prevention programs, and support services that ensure no one has to face cancer alone.
