Pink Ball
 Jade BENHAM (Mildura) (13:11): I wish to recognise some truly remarkable achievements throughout the Mildura electorate recently. Last weekend my team and I attended the final Pink Ball, a beloved Sunraysia institution that over 17 years has raised an extraordinary $920,000 for Sunraysia Cancer Resources, including an incredible $90,000 this year alone. The event has not only raised funds but brought our community together in strength, compassion and generosity. I have a couple of staff members who have been on that committee for several years, and they are extraordinary people. To Deb Chandler and her pink army, the organisers, the sponsors and the supporters, thank you for turning pink into power for local cancer support.
