The impact of childhood cancer on children and their families is incredible. It affects not only the child but also their brothers and sisters, parents, grand parents, friends, the whole community. All donations are welcome.

The Childhood Cancer Association is South Australia’s key organisation, dedicated to providing emotional, practical and financial support to families in need. 

 

This support is delivered via a range of services including: peer & family support, sibling support, free accommodation to country families, respite accommodation, financial assistance, educational assistance and bereavement services.  The Association also provides funds for paediatric oncology research and clinical trials.
 
The Childhood Cancer Association receives no ongoing government funding and therefore relies heavily on the generous support of the community, to enable it to continue to provide vital services and support to families in need and research into finding a cure.

7 dedicated staff together with a team of more than 100 volunteers work all year round to support the association and the work it does.

 

Mission Statement:

'The Childhood Cancer Association exists to provide emotional, social and financial support
for children with cancer and their families, and to support initiatives that will improve
clinical outcomes or the quality of life for children and young people with cancer'.
