The Telethon Adventurers

Ricky Ponting

I wish Rick and his fellow climbers all the very best for their assault on Mont Blanc.

Over the last nine years, my wife Rianna and I have been busy doing everything we can to support children and their families affected by cancer. The Ponting Foundation provides funding for a wide range of essential services that comfort and nurture the child while providing emotional support and financial assistance for their family.

I am extremely proud to put my name to Rick’s inspiring initiative and know that he will be successful in making a significant difference to Ward 3B. I will be with everyone in spirit as they climb Mont Blanc and look forward to hearing of the overall outcome. I also encourage all Australians to get behind the cause and make a donation to the ‘Climb for Childhood Cancer’ – you can help Rick and the team to do their bit in the battle against this disease.

All the very best

I cannot begin to imagine what it must be like as a parent, to have a child diagnosed with cancer.

The needs of the children and that of the families going through this must be incredible – Ward 3B at PMH provides that support and much needed care and we must do all that we can to help.

This is a terrible disease for which, there is currently no known cure….we need to change this and for this reason I am very pleased to become an official Ambassador for The Adventurers – A Climb for Childhood Cancer!

I wish Rick and the Team all the best for the climb of Mont Blanc and all of their future fundraising endeavours. I am proud to be part of this worthwhile cause – for the children of the future.

I encourage everyone, particularly those from fashion and related industries, to get behind ‘The Adventurers’ and support them in any way possible.
