UPDATE: 10 SEP, 2010

We climb this mountain in memory of all the kids that have lost their battle with cancer.

We climb it with hope, determination and strength for all the kids in Ward 3B and those that have cancer.

We climb this mountain in celebration of life and for the kids that have survived this terrible disease.

We climb Mont Blanc to make a difference! Life is a Gift!

Keep up to date with the Climbers progress by regularly visiting The Mont Blanc Project Facebook page.

The Mont Blanc Project 2010: “A Climb for Childhood Cancer” is a fundraising endeavor for the Childhood Cancer patients at Princess Margaret Hospital, Ward 3B, The Total Care Unit.

Meet our Ambassadors – Ben Elton, Ricky Ponting and Aurelio Costarella


As a parent I can scarcely imagine the horror of being told that your child has cancer which is why I am proud to add my name to this fantastic project and become one of it’s Ambassador’s. Rick and the team have a huge challenge ahead of them but with all our support they can make a real contribution to the fantastic work done at Princess Margaret Hospital where kids are facing an even greater challenge.

I wish every one of the climbers the very best as they take their dream to the top of the world.

I wish Rick and his fellow climbers all the very best for their assault on Mont Blanc.

Over the last nine years, my wife Rianna and I have been busy doing everything we can to support children and their families affected by cancer. The Ponting Foundation provides funding for a wide range of essential services that comfort and nurture the child while providing emotional support and financial assistance for their family.

I am extremely proud to put my name to Rick’s inspiring initiative and know that he will be successful in making a significant difference to Ward 3B. I will be with everyone in spirit as they climb Mont Blanc and look forward to hearing of the overall outcome. I also encourage all Australians to get behind the cause and make a donation to the ‘Climb for Childhood Cancer’ – you can help Rick and the team to do their bit in the battle against this disease.

All the very best

I cannot begin to imagine what it must be like as a parent, to have a child diagnosed with cancer.

The needs of the children and that of the families going through this must be incredible – Ward 3B at PMH provides that support and much needed care and we must do all that we can to help.

This is a terrible disease for which, there is currently no known cure….we need to change this and for this reason I am very pleased to become an official Ambassador for The Adventurers – A Climb for Childhood Cancer!

I wish Rick and the Team all the best for the climb of Mont Blanc and all of their future fundraising endeavours. I am proud to be part of this worthwhile cause – for the children of the future.

I encourage everyone, particularly those from fashion and related industries, to get behind ‘The Adventurers’ and support them in any way possible.
