Supporting a Worthwhile Cause
Keith Urban, a renowned country singer-songwriter, recently returned to his home country of Australia to show his support for the It’s a Bloke Thing Foundation. This exceptional event, dedicated to raising awareness and funding for prostate cancer research, is highly anticipated by many. For Keith, this cause is personal. His father, Robert, sadly lost his battle with the disease in December 2015, and other members of his family have also been affected.
Making a Difference
Since its inception seven years ago, the It’s a Bloke Thing charity event has made a significant impact in the fight against prostate cancer. Millions of dollars have been raised to fund awareness and research, thanks to the generosity of compassionate individuals and the local community. In 2017 alone, the event received over $1.53 million in donations, making it one of the most effective midday fundraising programs in the nation.
A Record-Breaking Performance
Keith Urban, known for his exceptional talent and heartfelt music, generously offered his skills for free, contributing to the lunchtime fundraising event in Toowoomba. His unselfish gestures of generosity played a significant role in the event’s success, helping raise a remarkable $2,024,000.00. This extraordinary amount will go a long way in supporting the important work being done to fight prostate cancer.
