Financial Assistance for Families
Easing the strain on families
We help with household bills to ease the financial stress on families when their child has been diagnosed with cancer. Kids aged 0-18 being treated in a children’s hospital can receive family support for bills and expenses, including:
- Utility and household bills such as electricity and water, rates, strata fees and insurance
- Mortgage and rent payments
- Grocery and petrol vouchers
- Car expenses such as insurance and registration, repairs, services, tolls and roadside membership
- Phone and internet
- Assistance with funeral costs

Allocated to financially assist families
Kids with Cancer Foundation provided financial assistance to our family at a time we needed most.
Bills kept coming in, but I was unable to work due to my son’s weakened immunity. They assisted with electricity bills and car registration just to name a few. This relieved so much financial stress so my husband and I could give our utmost attention to both our boys during these whirlwind times.”
