Regrettably, we have had to change the venue of our fundraising swimming event. However, the event is still going ahead as a relay at the Merewether Ocean Baths from 7 am on February 7th.

The event is now called RUN DIPG DIVES INTO THE PONS. The Pons is the region of the brain stem that DIPG originates. Kids diagnosed with a high-grade glioma/brain cancer in the Pons only live nine months.
In more than 50 years of research, we still don't have a treatment, meaning every year in Australia, 20 children will be diagnosed and die from DIPG. Your continuing support and advocacy can help us improve these statistics!

In recognition of each of those children diagnosed each year, our swimmers will be swimming a relay course of a total of 20 kilometres, and we would love your support. To donate and support this awesome event, you can do so via the link in bio.

For the T-shirt (with an updated design!) jump on the RUNDIPG merch store, and a reminder that pre-orders close today!

Big thanks to our main sponsor, @belmont16s for their support! If you're interested in supporting the event as a sponsor, please get in contact via hello@rundipg.org.

Preorders are now open for the Take on The Lake tees! All the profits from these shirts goes towards DIPG research, including funding the movement of treatments developed in the DunLab, aimed at increasing survival for kids diagnosed with DIPG as part of the International clinical trial #DMGACT.

The swim is taking place on February 7th and we would love to see our supporters out in force on the day. For more information including where you can donate towards this awesome effort, use the link in bio.

The pre-orders for the shirts is open on rundipg.myshopify.com.

A really amazing group of RUNDIPG supporters are taking their fundraising efforts to the next level and swimming 20 kilometres in February to raise funds and awareness for DIPG research. Alongside our own @matty_dun , the team are swimming a 20km round trip of Lake Macquarie, NSW, from Belmont 16s Sailing Club to Pulbah Island and back. , and we’d love for our RUNDIPG family to get behind them.

Donations can be made via the link in bio.

We’d also love to see supporters out on the day to cheer this amazing group on! If you’d prefer to wear your support on your sleeve, we’ll be opening pre-orders for limited edition tees very shortly via the RUNDIPG merch store. We’d like to thank @belmont16s for sponsoring the post-swim event and for their donation, and to Penelope Green who has been an incredibly committed supporter of RUNDIPG and who has organised the event. We wish the swimmers all the best with their training, and can’t wait to see them in action on February 7th!

@colessupermarkets stores of the Hunter Region and

@colessupermarkets stores of the Hunter Region and Cadbury (@mondelez_international ) have donated an incredible $10,000 to RUNDIPG to further our cancer research work in the community.

Dr Matt Dun explained that the donation would play a role in helping bring an international clinical trial of new drugs for the treatment of DIPG to the Hunter Region and around Australia. “We’re extremely grateful that the local Coles stores have chosen RUNDIPG to donate their $10,000 from Mondelēz,” he said.

Coles Regional Manager Patrick Bell said RUNDIPG was the unanimous choice among Lake Macquarie’s ten Coles stores to receive the Christmas bonus. “Our store managers were familiar with the work of Dr Matt Dun, having followed his personal story quite closely. So, when it was time to choose a local charity to support, we knew that RUN DIPG would be a worthy recipient,” he said. “We’re delighted that with Cadbury’s support we can play a small part in being able to further the incredible work of RUNDIPG.”

Mondelēz International’s Senior Sales Manager Angela King said the donation forms part of a $150,000 giving fund from Mondelēz International with Coles. “The local Coles stores told us they wanted to give back to local charities whose fundraising has been impacted by COVID-19, and we were delighted to help. It’s fantastic to see the Coles stores paying it forward to support charities and causes that matter most to them.”
