Stars rally around Carrie Bickmore's Beanies 4 Brain Cancer campaign
The Project's Carrie Bickmore has incredibly raised millions of dollars for vital brain cancer research over the years through her foundation, Beanies 4 Brain Cancer.
Carrie's Beanies 4 Brain Cancer was first created in 2015, after she dedicated her Gold Logie to her first husband Greg Lange, who died of brain cancer in 2010.
On Wednesday, other Australian media personalities - including Lisa Wilkinson, Sam Armytage and Amanda Keller - banded together on Instagram to show love and support to the foundation, ahead of the new beanie line launch on July 14.
Lisa, 60, posed with her dog Maggie, who heartily sniffed the pastel pink knitted beanie, while sharing her heartfelt congratulations to her “beautiful buddy” Carrie.
“Carrie has done so much in this area to raise funds over the last five years ($12M to date), and this is where we all get the chance to do our bit,” Lisa said in her lengthy post.
Amanda, 58, also took to social media to cover her short locks with the warm winter hat, telling fans: “my mate Carrie is an absolute legend.
“We can all share her warm head and big heart with her new beanies! All proceeds go to brain cancer research.”
Studio 10 co-host Angela Bishop, 52, who also tragically lost her husband, Peter Baikie to cancer in 2017, said the beanie was “perfect for bushwalking” and “perfect for saving lives”.
“It’s a double duty beanie,” Angela wrote, posing in her hat after a hike.
Radio presenter Fifi Box, 43, also wanted to join in on the support by bringing in her two daughters Trixie Belle and Daisy Belle, as they all donned the stylish beanie.
“It’s time to put an end to brain cancer! These gorgeous beanies are on sale July 14 online. So proud of @BickmoreCarrie never giving up,” she said.
Sunrise co-host Samantha Armytage, 43, also shared a picture of herself wearing the pastel pink hate on her Instagram stories.
The foundation is special to Carrie, after her first husband, Greg Lange died of brain cancer in 2010.
The 39-year-old admitted The Australian Women's Weekly last year that she still feels Greg's presence every day.
