Where your donation goes
Since 1998, we have helped make today easier for kids with cancer and their families, made possible by our generous supporters.
Donations and lottery income fund the Foundation’s operating costs and our five charitable programs:
Family Financial Assistance
Easing the financial pressure means families can focus on what matters most. Our financial assistance program relieves the stress on families by covering bills like rent, groceries and fuel.
Care Packs 4 Kids
Care Packs 4 Kids provide instant support for children in the oncology clinic waiting for appointments. Each pack makes today a little easier by delivering comfort and distraction during stressful times.
Wigs4Kids™
Bespoke wigs can transform lives and restore confidence to children living with a cancer diagnosis. Fundraising efforts and hair donations from our generous supporters are used to make bespoke wigs for kids.
Hospital & Clinical Positions
We support 9 children’s hospitals across Australia with vital funding for facilities and clinical positions, such as social and welfare workers, oncology fellows, clinical nurse consultants and researchers.
Research Funding
Our $1M gift for the Kids with Cancer Foundation Genetics Risk Program, along with other similar research funding, helps accelerate cancer research and make a positive impact on children’s health, sooner.
