NORM's CHOPS FOR PROSTATE CANCER

By Norm Jensen

PDG Norms Chops for Prostate Cancer

I’m a Mater community champion and I’m raising much need funds for a cause close to my heart.

A member of Lions Clubs Australia, with a diagnoses of Prostate Cancer back in 2015 and still undergoing  treatment, I am a  Supporter of the Lions Prostate Cancer Research & Treatment Project. 

This 🦁project  has been supporting  the work of Professor John Hooper and his team at  the Mater Foundation since 2004 with their research into and treatment for prostate cancer. At a recent Prostate Cancer Awareness event on 1st Septmber 2026 the Lions Project presented a cheque for $302,117.20  raised from Lions Clubs around Australia to the Mater Foundation for its research into prostate cancer and treatment for prostate cancer. 

This You Tube video will provide you with information on this support https://youtu.be/FHIW-7Uz-Nc

To help raise awareness of the work of this Lions Project and the Mater Foundation, rather than shave the chops off at an event, I coloured my chops BLUE at the Lions District 201Q3 Convention in Toowoomba on the 4th October 2025 and plan to do the same at the 2026 Convention on Bribie Island on Saturday 3rd October 2026.

Will you support me by making a donation or joining my team with your own chops or beard to help us support this important cause.  

I am also dedicating this fundraiser to my friend and former Lion The Hon Mark McArdle MP and other Lions and their families who have gone onto higher service as well as those like me and our families who are still dealing with their diagnose and treatment.

I didn't think you could make yourself look any stupider but you have found a new blue angle to really stand out I see. Hopefully you will get to your target before your funeral. 😀
