The Mother's Day Classic (MDC) is an annual walk/run event held on Mother's Day. Since its inception in 1998 more than half a million women, men and children have participated raising more than $30 million for breast cancer research. The event is now one of Australia's largest national charity events and has become an integral part of Mother's Day for thousands of Australians. Women in Super inspired and continue to organise the MDC because they care about the health of women, as well as their financial wellbeing. One in nine women will be diagnosed with breast cancer and many more will be impacted. Beating breast cancer will go a long way to improving womenÍs lives and that will only happen through research. Proceeds of the event go to the National Breast Cancer FoundationÍs research programs into detection, treatment and care. The majority of people who organise the MDC each year are volunteers. You too can get involved by registering to walk, run or volunteer in all capital cities and various regional centres across Australia.
