Prost8 have partnered with GoFundMe, the world’s largest non-profit Crowdfunding platform to launch the Living Better After Prostate Cancer campaign. This aims to be a record setting biggest ever UK non-profit crowdfunding campaign at £10m over two years.
The campaign is unique having one national umbrella covering the UK but with up to 20 sub campaigns each focused on the NHS’s geographic regions. Each region will be donated one full set of focal ablation equipment to provide less invasive treatment options for more than 8000 men each year with an early stage prostate cancer diagnosis, at about £500,000 per region.
Everyone who takes part or donates will receive a new limited edition Prost8 supporter’s lapel pin and will also be entered into a fun celebrity led draw to win one of three amazing Once in a Lifetime experiences (more details to follow). The more you donate the bigger the rewards….
