7th Annual Breakfast for Brain Cancer 
Friday, 23 May 2025

On Friday, May 23, the White Pearl Foundation hosted its 7th Annual Breakfast for Brain Cancer at the Royal Motor Yacht Club in Point Piper, Sydney, in support of The Brain Cancer Group (TBCG).

In a room filled with generosity, courage and quiet determination, the 7th Annual Breakfast for Brain Cancer unfolded on Friday, May 23, at the Royal Motor Yacht Club in Point Piper. Overlooking the calm waters of Sydney Harbour, supporters gathered for a powerful morning of community, storytelling and fundraising in support of our Research Pillar.

Hosted by the White Pearl Foundation, which was established by TBCG Director Suzane Peponis-Brisimis, the event marked Brain Cancer Awareness Month and raised vital funds. Guests were informed of the latest developments in TBCG’s laboratory by Dr Alexander Yuile, and patient Emily Kirk generously shared her very moving story. In attendance, our Chairman and co-founder Dr Raymond Cook and our recently appointed brain cancer care co-ordinator, Paige Craswell.

Following a delicious brunch, guests were  invited to bid on an array of raffle prizes and handmade goods, with 100% of proceeds going directly to brain cancer research.

The event generated over $25,000 profit. Thank you to White Pearl Foundation supporters, Emily Kirk and Dr Yuile. The annual Breakfast for Brain Cancer remains an informative, memorable event, enjoyed by all.
