MCG to SCG Walk 2.0 Supporting the McGrath Foundation

“Give your hands to serve and your hearts to love”, and “True service is not merely an external
act but stems from a heart filled with love and compassion” (Mother Teresa). Inspired by the
great saint of the 20th century, I would like to add that “Give your feet to fundraising walk and
do something for the community”.

Hi! My name is Prabodh Malhotra and I have been living in Melbourne for more than 40 years.
This country has given me a beautiful life, and now it is my turn to give something back to the
country. On Sunday 29 October 2023, I begin the walk from Melbourne Cricket Ground
(MCG) to Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG) to raise funds for the McGrath Foundation (MF) that
has been doing commendable work to help thousands of families across Australia affected by
breast cancer. I plan to arrive at the SCG on the Opening Day of the Pink Test that has become
synonymous with breast cancer. Last year I completed 1100kms walk from the MCG to SCG
also in support of MF; however, this year’s walk through Geelong, Ballarat, Bendigo, Echuca,
Deniliquin, Wagga Wagga and Goulburn is going to be longer and more arduous. As a 72-
year-old retiree, I am so pleased to avail this opportunity to make a small contribution to such
a noble cause.

Our target is to raise $100,000 for the McGrath Foundation. My humble request to you is to
please give generously and encourage others to donate directly to the Foundation by clicking
on the link provided or scan the QR Code. Every dollar counts and even small donations add
up like little droplets forming a stream. Donations over $5 are tax deductible.

Additional funds would help place more specialist McGrath Breast Care Nurses, wherever
they’re needed, and I’d love your support. Every breast cancer experience is different. That’s
why the McGrath Foundation aims to make life that little bit easier for individuals and families
experiencing breast cancer.

I would really appreciate if you would please make a generous donation. Thank you so much!
