Acu-Tech Supports MACA Cancer 200 Ride for Research
Acu-Tech is proud to announce its participation in the MACA Cancer 200 — Ride for Research for the second year. This incredible 200-kilometre cycling journey is a testament to our team’s commitment to making a real difference in the lives of Western Australians affected by cancer. We are not just participating; we’re joining a powerful movement to support groundbreaking research and give hope to countless families. Our team is aiming to raise a significant $22,500, with every dollar going directly to the Harry Perkins Institute of Medical Research. We believe in the power of this research to create a healthier future for our community.
Supporting Vital Melanoma Research in WA
The funds raised from our ride will specifically support the work of Professor Jonas Nilsson and his dedicated team. Their vital research at the Harry Perkins Institute of Medical Research is focused on improving the survival rates for melanoma patients right here in Western Australia.
Melanoma is the third most diagnosed cancer in Australia, and approximately 1,400 people are diagnosed with this disease each year. These alarming statistics highlight the urgent need for new treatments and a deeper understanding of this complex disease. By contributing to Professor Nilsson’s research, your support will help develop innovative therapies, improve diagnostic methods, and ultimately, increase the chances of survival for those fighting melanoma. Your donation directly fuels the work of world-class scientists who are on the front lines in the fight against cancer.
The MACA Cancer 200: A Journey of Hope
The MACA Cancer 200 is more than just a ride; it is a powerful demonstration of community spirit and collective hope. Over the past 11 years, this event has brought together thousands of passionate participants, raising an incredible $56 million for local cancer research. This funding has allowed WA researchers to make significant strides in understanding and treating various forms of cancer, ensuring we are one step closer to a cancer-free future.
Acu-Tech is honoured to be a part of this inspiring journey for a second time. Our team members, passionate about our community, have been training rigorously for the 200km ride. This commitment reflects our company’s core values of dedication and excellence, not just in providing top-quality HDPE pipe systems, but also in our commitment to giving back to the community that supports us.
Your Donation Makes a Real Difference
We are calling on our valued partners, customers, and community members to help us reach our fundraising goal. Every single donation, no matter the size, will make a tangible impact on the fight against cancer. Your support will directly contribute to life-saving research at the Harry Perkins Institute, helping them develop treatments and improve outcomes for patients in need.
