CAR703 –
Rallying for Research

 Childhood cancer is a cruel, indiscriminate killer – it strikes at children in the United States and the United Kingdom, in Singapore and China, in Australia and New Zealand – it doesn’t care, it strikes children anywhere in the world.

It is a parent’s worst nightmare
Research will find the cure. Hard working, dedicated researchers at Westmead Children’s Hospital in Sydney, Australia are at the forefront of the global research program. The Westmead Oncology Research Unit’s Cancer Gene Therapy Program is a breakthrough initiative undertaken by Australia’s leading cancer and gene therapy researchers. Trial results for the program to date have shown very positive results with the ORU team at Westmead preparing to commence human trials in 2008.
The Oncology Childrens Foundation, OCF, is an organisation that has been successful in raising and then providing the funding to the research program at Westmead. OCF provided A$2.1million last year and are the sole financial support for the Westmead Cancer Gene Therapy Program
When it comes, the cure will be as international as the disease. Australian researchers will not find a cure only for Aussie kids – the cure will be for kids in the USA, the UK, South Africa, New Zealand – research will find a cure for children everywhere                See http://www.ocf.com.au/


 “30 years ago most children with cancer died, now 75% can be cured permanently. This dramatic improvement is the result of an increase in the amount of money being directed into research.

The Oncology Children's Foundation (OCF) is a not-for-profit children’s charity dedicated to helping sick and critically ill children suffering from cancer, leukemia and other serious cancer related illnesses”.

We’ve all seen race cars covered in sponsor decals but our race car is pursuing a different concept. CAR703 is sponsoring/promoting the OCF with the very special car being used as a focal point to raise awareness and much needed funds to help finance the Westmead research team.
