Ingham Lions Back The Bike Ride

In a powerful act of community support, the Ingham Lions Club Executive recently presented a cheque to the organisers of the Townsville to Cairns Bike Ride (TCBR), helping drive momentum towards their $400,000 fundraising goal for the Children’s Cancer Institute of Australia (CCIA). Their donation contributes to the impressive $360,079 already raised, each dollar going toward lifesaving research and care for children fighting cancer.

Sixty years ago, childhood cancer was nearly always fatal. Today, thanks to medical research and community-driven fundraising, over 80% of children survive. But there’s still work to do—more than 1,000 young Australians are diagnosed with cancer each year, and tragically, three children die from the disease every week.

Childhood cancer isn’t caused by lifestyle or preventable choices. It strikes without warning, demanding care, compassion and critical funding. By supporting the TCBR and the CCIA, the Ingham Lions Club is helping to give every child the best chance at life and the care they need and deserve.
