Paint the Town Red, Arrow’s bespoke fundraising campaign has been another big success in 2025, just its second year of running. 

Paint the Town Red is a campaign that raises funds to support bone marrow and stem cell patients across the country, and this year we’ve raised over $20,000 with still one more fabulous event* to come. 

Liverpool Catholic Club & ANZTCT support us again!

We’ve had incredible support again this year from both the Liverpool Catholic Club ($5000 donation) and the ANZTCT Paint the Town Red Dinner at their Annual Scientific Meeting which raised over $4000, nearly double what it contributed last year. 

Our highest fundraiser was Graham Lewis, who raised over $7200 through the City Bay Fun Run in Adelaide. Congratulations Graham on such a remarkable result! 

So many ways to Paint the Town Red

There were many varied approaches to the Paint the Town Red Theme with traditional events like Jodie Mason’s event in honour of her son Tallis Tobin (known as Big Red) who passed away last September, and fitness events like the one run by Sage Wilder, a stem cell transplant survivor himself, which drew together many people enjoying exercising for a cause. We also had people being sponsored to paint their fingernails red for the month, including Dr Ritika Saxena who took her Paint the Town Red branded nail polish around the world and painted the nails of many of her international research colleagues, collecting donations from them along the way. 

*Lisa Cuthbertson’s Funk Off 40+ Disco event is being held 9th November 2025. Join in the fun! Tickets available here.
