In the pursuit of improving outcomes for children and adolescents with cancer, we are proud to partner with the following organisations.
Their support is vital to our ongoing work in Australia and New Zealand.
Australian Government – Medical Research Future Fund, Cancer Australia, NHMRC
Established by the Australian Government in 2006, Cancer Australia works to benefit all Australians affected by cancer and their families and carers, by reducing the impact of cancer and improving the wellbeing of those diagnosed by ensuring that evidence informs cancer prevention, screening, diagnosis, treatment and supportive care. ANZCHOG is supported by Cancer Australia through their Support For Cancer Clinical Trials program to build the capacity of Australia to undertake high quality clinical cancer trials, as well as several trial-specific grants.

In addition, the Australian Government supports ANZCHOG through their competitive research funding schemes, with ANZCHOG securing grants to conduct clinical trials from the Medical Research Future Fund and the National Health & Medical Research Council.
Isabella & Marcus Foundation
Isabella and Marcus lost their lives to a little-known brain cancer called Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG). This cancer occurs in the brainstem, most frequently in children under the age of 12 years and offers no prospect of long-term survival. Most children die within a year of diagnosis. Isabella’s and Marcus’ families were brought together by their tragedies. They are like-minded in their pursuit to extend and improve the quality of life for children diagnosed with brainstem tumours and ultimately to find a cure. Visit Website
Cure Brain Cancer Foundation
The leading organisation for brain cancer research, advocacy and awareness in Australia, Cure Brain Cancer Foundation has a time-critical mission to increase five-year survival from the current 20 per cent to 50 per cent by 2023. With a strong patient focus they forge global collaborations, fund innovative research and are bringing world-class clinical trials to Australia to give children and adults with brain cancer access to new treatments faster.

A leading national charity funding childhood cancer research. Thanks to generous community support, more than $27 million has been invested into projects across Australia. The Kids’ Cancer Project is committed to achieving one hundred per cent survival for all kids with cancer, with minimal or no side effects.
The Robert Connor Dawes Foundation
Inspired by a big heart and brain, the Robert Connor Dawes Foundation was created in June 2013 in the memory of Robert “Connor” Dawes. They are battling paediatric brain tumours and supporting brain matters in the areas of research, care and development – to fund the science to end brain cancer and support patients in the meantime.
Carrie’s Beanies 4 Brain Cancer Foundation
Carrie’s Beanies 4 Brain Cancer mission is to raise funds for vital brain cancer research. Approximately 1,600 Australians will be diagnosed with brain cancer this year and of them 80% will die. These are fathers, mothers, children, brothers, sisters and friends. Currently there is no cure. Brain cancer survival rates haven’t changed in 30 years.
We need to increase survival rates and the only way to achieve this is through vital research. Together we can make a difference in the fight against brain cancer.
