Where your money goes

In 2011, it's GAME ON to fight cancer. Here's how your money helps in the fight.

$10       can help us give patients with advanced cancer important information and strategies to help them adjust to the uncertainty of advanced cancer.

$50       can pay for a registered cancer nurse to give information and support to men facing cancer, and their family and friends, via the Cancer Council Helpline  (13 11 20).

$150     can allow a research team to purchase a tissue sample for use in investigating the causes of cancer, as well as potential treatment options.

$250     can provide a financial assistance grant to help people facing cancer cover costs like phone bills, gas accounts and wigs while they adjust to their changed circumstances.

$500     can pay to train a volunteer for our Cancer Connect telephone peer support service. Volunteers can be put in touch with men who have had a similar cancer experience to provide one-to-one emotional and practical support.

$1,000  can help fund clinical trials, which test the effectiveness of various treatment options in order to find new and better ways to prevent, diagnose and treat cancer
  
$1,500  can help us fund groundbreaking research into the causes of cancer and into new and improved treatments. Huge strides have been made through research; survival rates for many common cancers have improved by over 30% in the last 20 years.
