Nicole’s Stars of Penrith Success: Over $5,000 Raised for Cancer Council NSW

Panthers Penrith is proud to celebrate an incredible result from Stars of Penrith 2026, with our team member Nicole Scheinflug completing her performance and raising over $5,000 for Cancer Council NSW.

Held on Friday, 20th March 2026, Stars of Penrith brought together local leaders and community champions for a memorable gala evening of entertainment and fundraising. Collectively, the event raised over $150,000 for Cancer Council NSW, supporting vital work in cancer research, prevention, advocacy, and support services for people and families impacted by cancer.

Nicole’s Tap Dancing Routine: A Standout Moment

Representing Panthers Penrith, Nicole took to the stage with an amazing tap dancing routine that had the room cheering. Her performance was full of heart and energy, and it was backed by weeks of commitment to rehearsals, fundraising, and rallying support from our local community.

Nicole’s fundraising was driven by a deeply personal connection to the cause. Cancer has touched her family through her mum’s melanoma diagnosis and her dad’s hairy cell leukaemia. Her willingness to share her story, paired with her determination to take on the challenge, helped inspire generous support across Penrith and beyond.

Thank You to Our Members, Guests and Community

To every Panthers Penrith member, guest, staff member and supporter who donated, shared Nicole’s fundraising page, bought raffle tickets, purchased a 100s Club number, or encouraged her along the way, thank you. Your support helped turn one performance into real impact for families who need it most.

This result is a proud reminder of what our community can do when we come together for a cause bigger than any one person.
