Pink Pilbara Breakfast
We are absolutely blown away and humbled by the generosity of the Hedland community who have got behind this year’s Pink Pilbara Breakfast. We are incredibly excited to announce that with the generous support of the Hedland community, we have been able to raise $150,000!!!
ALL funds raised through Pink Pilbara Breakfast provide cancer prevention and screening services, as well as support services to cancer patients and their carers, delivered by the Hedland Well Women’s Centre.
We would like to THANK everyone who participated in this year’s Pink Pilbara Breakfast! To all of our amazing sponsors, donators, speakers, volunteers, supporters, everyone who attended the event, made a donation, bought a raffle ticket or bid on the silent and live auction – THANK YOU!
Follow our Pink Pilbara Breakfast Facebook page where we will continue to post photos and updates. Thank you once again for your support!
The Hedland Well Women’s Centre 2024 Pink Pilbara Breakfast will be held on Friday 30th August at The Esplanade Hotel.
Since 1991, Hedland Well Women’s Centre (HWWC) has hosted an annual community fundraising event in support of local people affected by cancer. After identifying a growing need for further on-the-ground support and services in Hedland, HWWC introduced an inhouse Cancer Support Service in October 2020.
In 2023, the generosity of the Hedland and Pilbara community raised $115,000. These funds are being used to directly support this critical local service.
This year, all money raised from sponsorships, donations and other fundraising efforts will support two principal purposes:
- Primary healthcare – the continuation of HWWC’s clinical and health promotion programs that aim to prevent women’s cancers including lifesaving screening, education and upskilling.
- Secondary healthcare – the continuation of HWWC’s clinical Cancer Support Services for local women who have been diagnosed with or are connected to cancer.
The uptake and need for these services continue to rise annually. As HWWC transitions to a sustainable funding model, we invite the community to join us to uplift and empower health opportunities in Port Hedland.
The ongoing success of the Pink Pilbara Breakfast is made possible through the generosity, compassion and support of the incredible Hedland community. Donation and volunteer opportunities are now open and we would love your support. Please contact us for details on how you, your organisation or your business can contribute towards our auction.
This year, the event will be hosted by Married at First Sight’s Lucinda Light. Tickets will go on sale mid-July.
We are excited to turn Hedland pink once again this year on Friday 30th August and invite you to join us!
We invite all local businesses and organisations to join us in making a difference to the lives of women impacted by cancer, by donating items towards our Pink Pilbara Breakfast live and silent auctions!

Pink Pilbara Breakfast 2023 – Save the Date – Friday 8th September. More info coming soon…
For over 17 years, the Hedland Well Women’s Centre (HWWC) has hosted a community fundraising event in support of cancer. After identifying a growing need for further support and assistance on the ground in Hedland, the HWWC introduced an inhouse Cancer Support Service in October 2020.
Through the generosity of the Hedland and Pilbara community, $150,000 was raised at this year’s breakfast and will be spent directly to support this critical service.
The HWWC is committed to seeing this work continue to provide better lives for the women in our region. This year, all money raised from sponsorships, donations and other fundraising efforts will support two primary purposes:
- Continuation of the Hedland Well Women’s Centre Cancer Support Service.
- New and existing services, events and programs that actively aim to prevent women’s cancers including lifesaving screening and health checks.
The need for these crucial services continues to rise each year and as we transition to a sustainable funding model, we invite you to join us to uplift and empower the Port Hedland community.
The ongoing success of the Pink Pilbara Breakfast is only made possible through the generosity, compassion and support of our amazing community. Sponsorship opportunities are now open and we would love your support!
Please contact us for details on how you, your organisation or your business can become a sponsor or make a donation towards our auction.
