Children's Cancer Foundation

Every year, 1,000 Australian children are diagnosed with cancer – and fight with their families to beat this brutal disease.

Of the 1,000 children diagnosed with cancer, 150 will die. Another 550 kids will survive but live with serious long-term side effects and impacts. And those terrible numbers keep building, year on year.

Since the Children’s Cancer Foundation was formed in 1992, more than 30,000 Aussie kids have been diagnosed with cancer – and more than 4,500 have died. That’s 4,500 young lives lost and 4,500 devastated families.

Standing united with the researchers, doctors and families, who are fighting childhood cancer every single day, the Children’s Cancer Foundation aims to ensure children have access to world-class treatment and support.

The Foundation raises and invests funds to help identify and implement long overdue treatment breakthroughs - that save the lives of more children and improve the lives of more survivors.

The Children’s Cancer Foundation is committed to ensuring children with cancer survive and thrive.
