They need our help.
We need yours.
Every year, over 1000 Australian
children are diagnosed with cancer.
They can't find a cure by themselves.
If a child could cure themself of cancer, they would. They would spend their days in the lab, searching for ways to put an end to their pain, and get back to being a kid again.
But they need our research.
This tax-time, help our team pioneer safer and more effective treatments for children with cancer.
A life should be long.

At Children's Cancer Institute, we believe a life should be long. That every child should have the chance to grow up, grow old, chase their dreams and reach their potential.
But sadly, three children will be lost to this devastating disease every week in Australia.
For 40 years, we have been conducting research into the causes, prevention and cure of childhood cancer. Our vision is to cure every single child of cancer and give them the opportunity of a long, healthy life, and we won’t stop until we get there.
Research like the Zero Childhood Cancer Program (ZERO) is helping us get there. This precision medicine research is transforming the way cancer is treated, here and around the world. But we need to continue this momentum.
Kids with cancer need our help and we need yours.
Where your donation goes.

10% Fundraising activities to generate donations and increase funding.
6% Core support services and infrastructure cost, vital to keep the Institute running.

Note: The little boy you see in our campaign is Alex, he’s an actor. We work with many children and families affected by cancer who share their stories with us. But for campaigns like this, where we spend many hours on briefing, filming and photography, it’s simply not reasonable to ask a child with cancer to take on this role. All the stories featured on our website are real stories of children who have experienced this awful disease. Each of them show why our research is so important.
