"My husband, Graham Keith Pollock, was one of the 1200 who died from brain cancer in Australia in 2012. It was heartbreaking to watch a previously fit and healthy man physically and mentally deteriorate before succumbing to this terrible disease. The only way we will be able to beat brain cancer is through the funding of research. Please support brain cancer research and help us to find a cure to this illness."

"As Brain Cancer Donor Developer for Cancer Council NSW, I'm keen to show my support for one of the most lethal yet under funded cancers."

"My husband Andrew, passed away from brain cancer in December 2008 after a 7 year battle. He was only 32, he was 25 when the 1st tumour was discovered, he had four removed in total & fought a very brave fight, always with a smile on his face. He left behind his 8yo & our 1yo sons. The boys & i now have a fundraiser on his b'day each year to raise money for brain cancer research so hopefully one day this may help save someone elses husband, father & loved one."

"My husband is 29 and was diagnosed with glioblastoma multiforme in Nov 2012. We are staying positive through treatment but have been shocked to discover how unknown and under-researched brain cancer is - we desperately need more awareness, more money and more trials to find a breakthrough."

"My reason for pledging is to keep up the progress we are making, the research is showing forward steps and we need to maintain the support"

"We lost a great friend/mentor/work collegue on January 1 to brain cancer. We are happy to make a donation. Good luck to all the researchers involved in finding a cure for his disease."

"During my time researching brain cancer, I have been constantly frustrated by the lack of funding brain cancer research attracts. The 1200 Club gives us all an opportunity to change that shocking fact."

"May we raise enough money to help find a cure for the children of our future who may come across brain cancer xox"

"The 1200 club is something positive towards finding better treatments for one of the most lethal, yet sadly underfunded, cancers. As a neurosurgeon I recognise that although I have the privilege of providing care to patients during this often difficult journey, the most important future advances are likely to come from the lab and not the operating theatre. Let's be part of making this happen."

"As an adult and paediatric neurosurgeon I know that brain cancer affects all ages. To support research in this area is to offer hope to all those affected. Progress has been slow but new opportunities have opened in the fields of neuro-oncology with better understanding of tumour molecular biology and cancer genetics. We need to seize these opportunities that lay before us and 1200 Club program will give researchers that ability."

"Stay positive. Eat intelligently. Live wisely. Meditate. Laugh. YOU have to take part in the healing; take the lead role. If you are reading this then put a smile on your face - it means that you are alive. http://cancerpassion.blogspot.com.au/"

"This program will provide ongoing funding for vital research and support services. It has been set-up as brain cancer is still one of the most under-funded of all cancer - yet is the most lethal for young people under the age of 39 and children under the age of 10. We are here to change that."

"We have pledged our support for the 1200 Club and invite you to do the same."

"Our team is looking forward to working together with Cancer Council NSW on this new initiative. Far too many lives are cut short with little or no understanding of how to help them and we are driven to help change that. www.stopgap.com.au"

"We pledged our Membership at the trivia night as it is such a worthy cause."
