McGrath Foundation was featured on 60 Minutes last evening. The heartwarming story took viewers through the ten year history of the Foundation and featured the growth of the organisation from four breast care nurses, when Jane McGrath died in 2008, to 105 nurses today.
For me, the story was about the hope McGrath Foundation offers the women who rely on the breast care nurses across Australia. 60 Minutes also helped viewers to understand the impact of philanthropy and the power of a community following the lead of one inspiring woman.
It’s not everyday that a charity we know and love is featured on 60 Minutes. I especially appreciated the call for donations 60 Minutes featured on Twitter immediately after the broadcast.
