About The Kids' Cancer Project

The Kids' Cancer Project funds vital scientific research to develop better treatments for all children with cancer.

Thanks to generous supporters like you, we have committed more than $76 million to childhood cancer research, funding over 429 research projects that are improving outcomes for children and their families. 

Your support has helped fund research that ensures every Australian child diagnosed with cancer has access to clinical trials, contributed to breakthroughs recognised by leading international cancer research journals, and driven advances that are improving survival rates and quality of life for children facing cancer.

Our mission is to provide scientists with the funding they need to make groundbreaking discoveries, translate pioneering research into clinical practice, develop kinder and more effective treatments, and build support programs that help children not only survive cancer but thrive beyond treatment.

We are proud to have been the official charity partner of the Bondi to Bronte Ocean Swim since 2013. Over more than a decade, this incredible community has raised more than $398,546 to support life-saving childhood cancer research.

Meet Charli

Your fundraising helps make stories like Charli's possible. At just two years old, Charli was diagnosed with leukemia. Her father, Pat McCabe, shares their family's journey and how access to life-saving treatment gave Charli the chance to grow up, create new memories and look forward to a brighter future. Read Charli's story to see the impact your support is making for families facing childhood cancer.
