Mark Scarborough is a local IT professional and is the founder of My Gungahlin, which is now part of the Region Media Group since July 2020. It was through My Gungahlin that Mark first found out about Dainere’s story after her passing when herself and Jarrett were named Young Canberran Citizens of the Year in 2013. Having also met another local Gungahlin family that lost their son, Benny to a brain tumour Mark felt compelled to help raise awareness and funds for research to find a cure for this disease.

“I am honoured to be entrusted by the Anthoney family to be given the privilege of being named as Ambassador for Dainere’s Rainbow Brain Tumour Research Fund. I have been amazed at the determination this family has in honouring Dainere’s final wish to find a cure so no other child will suffer from this disease. We all recognise there is a long way to go, however each step we take together gets us closer to finding a positive outcome. Together, the journey is easier.”

We acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land where we meet and work, the Ngunnawal people, and the many other Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples from across Australia who have now made Canberra their home. We celebrate and respect their continuing culture and the contribution they make to the life of the ACT and region.

Dainere's Rainbow is a not for profit organisation - 100% of all funds raised or donated go to paediatric brain tumour research at Sydney Children's Hospital
Our Corporate Partners

Sydney Children's Hospital Foundation are proud to display the new Registered Charity Tick from the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission (ACNC), which aims to gives reassurance to the public that the charities they support are transparent and accountable. We rely on your donations and volunteering to ensure we can continue our vital work, so we want you to know your support is making a difference. Where you see the logo, it means the charity is registered with the ACNC so the public can easily find out what they do, who their beneficiaries are, how they are governed and how they manage their finances.
