Dear Shane,

On Thursday 7^th October 2010, the Caboolture branch of the foundation, for the first time, hosted ‘Light the Night’ an awareness campaign, to Remember, Celebrate and Give Hopeto all members of the community.

And, what a success it was. Bringing together community groups, Woodford Scouts, Caboolture Rotary club, Wamuran Rural Fire brigade, S.E.S & SEQUEST and Business Professional Women’s association to assist in the event.

Over 1,350 people attended this ‘Awareness Campaign’ bringing together ALL community members, professional, local, political, students and teachers for this truly inspirational evening, with emotion flowing freely from each community member that attended.

With entertainment supplied by some of the states wonderful musicians, and our very own Ambassador, Sinead Burgess, who wrote and sung ‘that’ special song for the night, it was truly a night to remember.

On behalf of not only the Leukaemia foundation of Qld, and the Caboolture Shire Branch Inc, but also the many, many patients whom we support, I would like to take this opportunity to thank the wonderful team from SEQUEST who assisted with the inaugural Light the Night event.

And, if I could just relay to you, that the Caboolture branch has been nominated for the MBRC Australia Day awards, for best community event, - bringing the community together.

We are most honoured to be nominated for this award, and we are aware, that if it wasn’t for the assisatance received from the members of SEQUEST and the other community groups involved, that this nomination would not have been possible.

Again, thank you.

Yours faithfully

Jane J McMillan
