No child should die from cancer.

A life should be long and full of possibilities. Please give today to show appreciation for all the precious years we have been given. Together we can stop children like Peta dying from cancer.
Donate Now
Peta was only 11 years old when her life was cut short by brain cancer. She never had the chance to grow up and grow old, to plan her futures or chase her dreams. Peta is one of the three children who die from their cancer every week in Australia.
This tax time we are asking you to show your appreciation for every precious year of life that we have been given by donating your age.

With your help, we can progress our research on medulloblastoma to a clinical trial by the end of the year. Together we can stop children like Peta dying from cancer.

A message from Dr Maria Tsoli

Dr Maria Tsoli works as a Senior Scientist in the Brain Tumours Group at Children's Cancer Institute.

"In the past few years we have seen remarkable progress in finding treatments for childhood cancer in general, but unfortunately, we haven’t seen the same progress for paediatric brain tumours. Please give generously to help us find more treatments and cures for children with aggressive brain tumours."

Support children's medical research today to help children like Peta.
