$850,000 donated to Cancer research so far!
Our transport industry here in Western Australia is a generous one. The small truck show we envisaged in 2020 was incredibly supported and the inaugural WA Mack Muster and Truck show raised enough money to donate $100,000 towards Harry Perkins Institute of Medical Research – A number never seen before from a Truck Show event. In 2022, our second show’s aim was to double the 2020 number, and impressively we donated $250,000 to the Perkins to help move us closer to a future free from disease. Beyond the impressive display of big rigs, the 2024 Truck Show raised a staggering amount of money with a whopping $500,000 donated to the Harry Perkins Institute, doubling the previous donation and bringing the total funds raised to over $850,000.

The Harry Perkins Institute of Medical Research
The Harry Perkins Institute of Medical Research conducts innovative research into the diseases that most affect our families in the WA community and the world at large. The Perkins was established in 1998 to unify Western Australian scientists in a collaborative research powerhouse. In the years since, they have grown to become one of the nation’s leading medical research centres, where a close knit team of more than 250 research and trial staff work together to defeat the major diseases that impact our community – diseases like cancer, heart disease, diabetes and rare genetic diseases.
