Name a fundraiser night for cancer treatments

July 13, 2006 4:44 AM

Help me come up with a witty name for a fundraising night for a friend's Herceptin (Trastuzumab) treatments.

This is a follow-up to this question. Quick background: a friend was diagnosed with breast cancer earlier this year. She's currently having neo-adjuvant chemo, to be followed by surgery, and then Herceptin.

In Australia, Herceptin is expensive. It is being considered for government subsidy, but in the meantime are group of her friends including myself are raising money for her treatments when they start.

We've organised a fundraiser night and booked a venue, but need a name for the event: something apposite, memorable, funny and/or irreverent without being demeaning (although bear in mind we're Australians, so broad wit goes over well).

I won't even list the suggestions I've come up with so far; I fear their sheer, overpowering godawfulness might actually strangle the creative output of other people.

What type of venue is it? Maybe that will help spark some creativity.

This is the venue, bleucube.

Great suggestions, by the way.

bleucube writes "My hump, my hump, my hump, my lovely little lumps."

You are now number 439753782 on the list of people who need to die horribly for perpetuating that song.


However, it is a good idea.
