It is with great pleasure that CyclingTips and I – Leeanne Gatien – can confirm that the funds raised from the entry fees of the 2021 Mark Gunter Photographer of the Year Awards have been finalised and passed on.
This year we raised money or cancer research and for Young Cyclist Assistance for three young cyclists.
Two grants of AUD$1,000 and a third grant of $500 was added this year as there were an unprecedented number of nominees.
The remaining proceeds were donated to donated to Tour de Cure. Tour de Cure is a registered charity whose mission is to cure cancer. Through inspirational cycling tours and events across Australia, TDC funds the boldest research, the most talented scientists and the pioneering cancer projects that Tour de Cure believes have the greatest potential impact to find a cure for cancer.
