Cancer affects people from all walks of life, creating a need for continued investment in research, treatment, patient support, and initiatives that improve the lives of those living with cancer. Community fundraising can play an important role in bringing people together around these shared goals.
The Flinders Foundation supports health and medical initiatives connected to Flinders Health and Medical Research Institute and Flinders Medical Centre, helping advance research, healthcare, and support for patients and their families.
In 2026, the Foundation is introducing a new name and format for its major fundraising event: The Ribbon Long Lunch. Inspired by the ribbon as a universal symbol of cancer awareness, the event represents Flinders Foundation’s commitment to supporting all cancers and the people impacted by them. The new format transforms the event into an elegant long-lunch experience focused on generosity, innovation, and hope.
The Flinders Foundation Ribbon Long Lunch 2026 will take place on Friday, 30 October 2026, at the Eos by SkyCity Ballroom. The event will bring members of the community together for an afternoon of connection and fundraising, while highlighting the importance of supporting people affected by cancer and advancing health and medical research.
By attending, guests can enjoy an elegant lunch while contributing to Flinders Foundation’s broader efforts to improve healthcare and support medical research.
Reserve your place here to join Flinders Foundation for the Ribbon Long Lunch and help support people affected by cancer while contributing to research, healthcare, and hope.
