Team McGoram

We are climbing Mount Kosciuszko on March 15 to help raise funds for Rare Cancers Australia. We are walking up Australia's tallest mountain to support RCA, who support us and many fellow friends/patients we know! RCA are a lifeline for so many rare cancer patients. They provide individualized support for patients, including: Information about their cancer, emotional support, tools & resources and financial support. Tom and I have accessed all of these supports in the past ten years, especially in the past 12 months. They are the only organization in Australia offering these supports for rare cancer patients. I know many fellow GIST patients who lean on RCA in the same way that we do. Pleases donate if you can 🙂


The Kosi Challenge is an annual event hosted by Rare Cancers Australia (RCA) to raise awareness and much needed funds for Australians diagnosed with a rare, less common or complex cancer each year.

In March 2025, we will be climbing 2,228 metres above sea level to reach Australia’s highest point to help RCA.

One hundred per cent of funds raised through the Kosi Challenge goes towards the important work of RCA's Patient Support Team.

From helping patients to access specialists and treatments, through to delivering support groups, connecting people with services and providing financial assistance particularly in times of crisis, Patient Support is at the heart of what RCA does.

RCA is a Federal Government-classified Health Promotion Charity. All donations over AU $2 are fully tax deductible.

Thank you so much for your support.

Thanks for doing it would like to do it myself but I have an ankle injury right now. But will do it next year. My niece has cancer of the appendix and because of you I checked out the website and found her's also to be a rare cancer which we also kind of knew but now we have more opportunities to investigate some of her current obstacles. xxx good luck and thank you
