Cure Cancer Australia Foundation

CURE CANCER AUSTRALIA'S focus is to find a cure for cancer. One in two families are touched by cancer in their lifetime and Cure Cancer Australia is determined to improve prevention, detection and treatment outcomes to reduce the suffering caused by cancer. "In the end we will win this fight. It is just a matter of time. But we can shorten that time if more and more people join us in our quest." - Arthur Byrne, Co-Founder, Cure Cancer Australia Foundation

Mission / Objective

Cure Cancer Australia’s single focus is to find a cure for cancer.

Our vision is a world without cancer, nothing less. Cure Cancer Australia champions innovative researchers in their quest to cure cancer and our role in the cancer space is an important one. We act as a front line source to provide vital start-up funding for innovative, ground-breaking research projects across all types of cancer. Since 1967, we have channeled over $15 million in the form of funding grants to national young researchers and have come to stand for integrity, excellence, and success in research.

Through gaining funding from Cure Cancer Australia, our brilliant young Australian researchers are granted a much needed opportunity to build on their ideas and develop a platform for their life-long aspiration to find a cure for cancer.

Untold thousands of lives have been saved around the world as a consequence of the knowledge gained and the treatments developed from Cure Cancer Australia's funded research projects.

The cure starts here www.curecancer.org.au. Thank you for your support

Projects in Progress

In 2011 , Cure Cancer is directing $1.8million of vital seed funding to 21 promising young researchers. These researchers work across the cancer spectrum in Australia’s leading hospitals, universities and institutes. Nine of these research grants are in collaboration with other cancer funding bodies and an additional six are in conjunction with Cancer Australia. This collaboration reduces duplication and the number of applications researchers need to submit.

These heroic researchers may just hold the key to a cure for cancer. Thanks for your support. To read about our 2011 researchers please visit our website www.curecancer.org.au
