When a cancer diagnosis comes, the last thing someone should be thinking about is how they will pay the bills or feed their family.
A cancer diagnosis is extremely stressful, and the cost of treatments or the loss of income due to cancer, can add additional strain.
At Christmas, this can be devastating.
It’s why your support is critical.
Your gift this Christmas will help people affected by cancer, who are experiencing financial hardship, to access vital financial relief services—helping ease the stress during an incredibly difficult time of their lives.
For families in need, your gift will make Christmas possible this year.
You can help provide much-needed financial assistance to people affected by cancer who are experiencing acute financial disadvantage.
Household expenses don’t stop during treatment, and your support can help pay bills, buy food, and get patients to life-saving cancer treatment.
Thanks to the generosity of people like you, financial counsellors are on hand to provide practical advice to help people manage their personal budget and finances as they navigate a cancer diagnosis and treatment. They provide information about financial rights and options and assist people in financial difficulty to negotiate with creditors.
Now more than ever, your support is needed.
As the COVID-19 global pandemic took hold, we were forced to make the difficult decision to cancel most of our community fundraising events. Now, many of our support services, such as our financial assistance program, are at risk.
This Christmas, hundreds of Australian families affected by cancer are facing extraordinary financial distress.
You can help provide them with urgently needed relief.
Cancer is stressful enough.
Please donate today and help ease the burden for people with cancer.
Please be generous this Christmas, so Aussie families facing cancer can keep food on the table and the lights on.
A big thank you to our Supporters
The real heroes who are kindly helping us achieve our goal
