Catherine ‘Riney’ Ross

This year the JLF Trek Victoria will be in memory of Catherine ‘Riney’ Ross. Riney and her Research4Riney team have been incredible supporters of the Jodi Lee Foundation.

In January 2019 Riney lost her battle with bowel cancer. She was a part of our family here at the Jodi Lee Foundation and is greatly missed. Her fundraising campaign, Research4Riney, has raised over $250,000 for bowel cancer research. 'Riney' helped spread awareness of bowel cancer, and her dedication and commitment has saved lives. 

Riney's family, friends and supporters team Research4Riney are trekking again this year.

Fundraising

We have a set minimum goal for each group:

  • 80km – individual fundraising target $500
  • 25km – individual fundraising target $500
  • 10km – individual fundraising target $100
 

However, you can always set your own fundraising target!
