A Family Making a Difference.
We would like to thank Stacey Walvin, Director of Generation Dance Centre in Brisbane, and her son Zac for their ongoing support of those living with sarcoma in Australia.
As Generation Dance Centre approaches its 30th anniversary, Stacey continues to inspire her students and community with remarkable resilience. After experiencing shoulder pain for six months, she initially believed she had suffered a work-related injury. Instead, she was diagnosed with chondrosarcoma, a rare and aggressive bone cancer.
Stacey’s story is a powerful reminder that recognising when something is not right and seeking medical advice early can be lifesaving. Early diagnosis matters.
Despite facing the daily realities of living with chondrosarcoma, Stacey remains committed to making a difference. Through Generation Dance Centre’s annual Mid-Year Showcase, Stacey, her students and their community have now raised more than $15,000 for sarcoma awareness and support.
What makes this even more remarkable is that Stacey has continued these fundraising efforts while facing significant personal adversity herself, a true reflection of her generosity, resilience and commitment to helping others.
Son Zac, a very talented competitor in motorsport has proudly added the CRBF logo to his race car, helping raise awareness wherever he competes. Since beginning his motorsport career at Brisbane’s iconic Lakeside Park in 2014, Zac has gone on to win multiple championships and today races for Team NorthRock in the national Toyota Gazoo Racing Australia Scholarship Series. An electrician by trade, Zac is also raising funds through his workplace with the support of the ETU.
Together, the Walvin family are helping raise awareness of sarcoma, highlighting the importance of early diagnosis, and supporting vital research and the Jack Gibson Sarcoma Patient & Family Support Programme.
Our deepest thanks to Stacey, Zac, the Walvin family, Generation Dance Centre, and Zac Walvin Motorsport for their unwavering support of the sarcoma community.
