River's Race 2026

River's Race 2026

Help me reach my goal of $1,000

I'm taking part in River's Race to raise funds for Children's Cancer Institute

River's Race is a community event in loving memory of my friend River Watkins - and for all kids with DMG/DIPG.

River was diagnosed with DMG/DIPG a month before his 8th birthday. Devastatingly, River passed away less than 3 weeks after his diagnosis in the early hours of the morning after his birthday.

DMG/DIPG has been described as the Mt Everest of cancers. Occurring in the midline of the brain and infiltrating the surrounding healthy tissue, these tumours are inoperable and untreatable. A finding of DMG/DIPG is the worst possible diagnosis for a child and their family as there is no hope – families are generally told to go home and make memories and the median survival time is 9 months.

While there is no cure for DMG/DIPG, Children's Cancer Institute are making major inroads. For the first time ever, there is hope on the horizon for the families of children diagnosed with this disease. Let’s close the funding gap and change the future of kids with DMG.
