Bombers’ fundraiser a success

Redland raised over $6,000 for the Kim Walters Choice Program in their Round 22 win over Southport.

Redland’s Round 22 win over Southport was a victory on and off the field, with the club also raising more than $6,000 for breast cancer research.

Redland’s seniors, in conjunction with their masters’ side raised $6,350 for the Kim Walters Choice Program on the day of their Round 22 clash against Southport.

Both squads donned pink jerseys for their matches, accompanied by a charity pink lunch, which Brisbane Lions player, Stephen Wrigley attended, and the jumpers were later auctioned off. 

The Bombers decided to hold the fundraising day after a former Redland premiership player lost his wife to breast cancer earlier this year.

The Kim Walters Choices Program is based at the Wesley Hospital and is a support program for breast and gynaecological cancer sufferers throughout their treatment and on their road to recovery.

It was a sensational day on and off the field for Redland, with the seniors getting up over the Sharks on the day, giving them crucial momentum heading into finals.

The Bombers’ major sponsor of the day was Irish Murphy’s, without whom the event could not have gone on.
