The McGrath Foundation raises money to place McGrath Breast Care Nurses in communities right across Australia. The McGrath Foundation was co-founded by Jane McGrath and her cricketing husband Glenn, after Jane's diagnosis and initial recovery from breast cancer. While being trreated for a secondary cancer in 2003, Jane had access to a breast care nurse for the first time and became aware of the tremendous impact that they can have on a patient's physical and mental wellbeing both during and after treatment. Jane said at the time, it was like having someone holding her hand through one of the worst nightmares of her life. Jane's breast care nurse allowed her to be Jane McGrath - the friend, the mother and the wife. She was also someone who could give Jane informed and knowledgeable answers to the many questions she had. As a result of this experience, Jane felt strongly that every woman diagnosed with breast cancer in Australia, and her family, should be able to benefit from the support of a specialist breast care nurse. As such, one of the McGrath Foundation's two main objectives is to raise money to fund McGrath Breast Care Nurses in communities right across Australia. The McGrath Foundation's second objective is to educate young women to be breast aware. Jane was only 31 when she was first diagnosed with breast cancer, and she felt passionately about empowering women under 40 to take control of their health by conducting regular breast checks - early detection means more effective treatment. Sadly, Jane passed away in June 2008, touching the hearts of many, but Jane's memory lives on. She has undoubtedly left a lasting legacy through both her family and the ongoing work of the McGrath Foundation, providing thousands of Australian women and their families with hope and support during their experience with breast cancer. Today, the McGrath Foundation is considered to be one of Australia’s leading breast cancer support charities, with 120 McGrath Breast Care Nurses who have helped support over 64,000 families experiencing breast cancer right across the country.
