"As a wonderful and long term friend of the hospital, Kids with Cancer Foundation has been granted the status of Founder this year.  Congratulations on this amazing achievement.

Your support over the last seven years and the magnificent contribution that you have all made to the Oncology unit is to be applauded.  You have made a real difference to children with cancer and their families that we care for.  Without your support of key positions within the team, we would, quite simply, not be able to offer the level of support that we currently do to children and their families.  

I know that you all work very hard to be able to support us like you do and on behalf of all the Oncology team here at the hospital, I want to say  congratulations and thank you for being our friends in the fight against childhood cancer."  Niki Mackay, Account Manager, Oncology Unit.

The Kids with Cancer Foundation has played a significant role in bringing this project to fruition.  Now, we can ensure that our patients have access to the highest quality of care and we know we have the potential to enhance and expand that care to continue delivering best practice in oncological care for children and young people."

Monash Medical Centre/Hospital Melbourne: $1.157million

We approached the Royal Children's Hospital, Monash Medical centre and Peter McCallum Cancer Institute with an offer of funding.  The KOALA parents group had been working with Southern Health and Monash to provide more kids cancer services in Clayton.  Our offer of funding came at the right time and we were asked to provide all the funds to construct the new Day Ward. 

Since our first payment of $650,000 the Victorian Government announced the new Paediatric Integrated Cancer Services group, PICS.  The size of the project changed and the total funds required to complete the Day Ward has risen to $1.157m.  We are pleased to be able to provide the total funds to, Southern Health/Monash Medical Centre, to complete the program.

The funds we have provided, come from the $2 raffle tickets we sell in Victorian shopping centres.  Help us to continue our support of Victorian cancer sufferers by buying $2 tickets when you see our displays.
