Lyn's Lunch

Local Community

 

Lyn’s Lunch is so named for Lyn McPherson, a lady who was diagnosed in 2009 with ovarian cancer, succumbing to this insidious disease only 15 months later at the age of 52.


A colourful tribute to Lyn

Funds raised by the Lyn’s Lunch Charity support the Women’s Cancer Foundation – an organisation that treats and cares for around 300 women each year suffering from gynaecological cancer. This year the charity event was held at the Sandringham Yacht Club on a beautiful sunny day.

Torsten Kasper, Chisholm and Gamon’s Managing Director, acted as the auctioneer at this year’s Lyn’s Lunch. He did a wonderful job of getting the attention of the unruly mob and managed to extract some good bidding for the items.

We are pleased to advise that the Lyn’s Lunch Charity is able to donate in excess of $35,000 from this event again this year to The Ovarian Cancer Institute taking the total to over $150,000 over the four years.
