Description

Clare Froggatt is a Macquarie University student, a passionate educator, an engaging communicator and a girl on a mission. When her eldest daughter was diagnosed with ALL Leukaemia in 2009 she discovered the desperate need for stem cell donors to save lives like her daughter's. She was surprised by how little awareness there was regarding the need for donors. Clare desires to dispel the myth that bone marrow donation is a barbaric painful experience. About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
