MEDIA ALERT / PHOTO OPPORTUNITY
THE PROSTATE CANCER FOUNDATION OF AUSTRALIA
PRESENTS “TABLE 4 TEN” TONIGHT!
Sydney’s Finest Chefs Rally to Raise Awareness of Australia’s Secret Killer During a
Night of Gastronomic Grandeur
Sydney, November 11, 2008: Getting behind a good cause just became a whole lot more
glamourous, thanks to unique new charity concept Table 4 Ten being held tonight, November 11,
2008 across Sydney.
Thirty five chic dinner parties will be held simultaneously in Sydney's top
restaurants and selected venues, exclusively in support of the Prostate Cancer Foundation of
Australia.
At each of the exclusive Sydney venues including Tetsuya’s, Guillaume at Bennelong, Aria, Est.,
Marque and Otto to name a few, (see below for full list)
ten guests will be treated to a specially
designed menu including the establishment’s finest gourmet fare as well as Glandore Estate wines.
Following the meal, all guests will be transported to the exclusive after-party venue in a top-secret
central Sydney location for cocktails and dancing to tunes spun by a top Sydney DJ.
Renowned chef Armando Percuoco of fabled eatery Buon Ricordo has been instrumental in getting
Sydney’s best chefs on board for this exclusive event. And his reasons are simple: “There is a lot of
awareness about the different kinds of cancers out there that affect women and children, but
unfortunately prostate cancer is rarely given a second thought. We all felt very strongly about
working together to raise awareness for this cause,” he said.
Aside from raising much needed funds for the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia, the idea is
that among the respective hosts and their guests, there are few degrees of separation. And by
maintaining this friends-of-friends philosophy, this fine-dining event will draw together like-minded
professionals and individuals to create awareness
of the very
important and yet underexposed
cause – prostate cancer.
“Over the past few years, we have seen Australian men starting to take a greater interest in their
health and wellbeing, said Andrew Giles, Chief Executive Officer of the Prostate Cancer Foundation
of Australia. “In terms of prostate cancer, a disease which causes 3,000 deaths in Australia each
year, this is proving to be vital.
Prostate cancer is a major men’s health issue in Australia and
something that all men should be aware of."
According to Mr. Giles, early detection is they key to keeping the deadly disease at bay. “Table4Ten
is the perfect opportunity to think about reaching out to the men in your life to get them to talk to
their doctor about their health, while raising
money to improve prostate cancer treatment, support
and cure options. Not to mention having the absolute night of your life!” he said.
