About Cancer Council Queensland

Our research tells us one in two Queenslanders will be diagnosed with cancer by the age of 85. On average, that’s one Queenslander diagnosed with cancer every 20 minutes.

While those numbers can feel overwhelming, we’re far from helpless. At Cancer Council Queensland, we believe we can find more effective treatments, prevent cancers, and provide the highest level of support to all Queenslanders impacted by cancer.

With your support, along with our dedicated team of volunteers and employees, we aim to ensure we’re there for all Queenslanders, every step of the way.

Our Mission

To lead Queenslanders in a partnership against cancer.

Our Strategy

Navigating cancer together.

That means being there for people when they need us – in whatever form that might take. It could be driving people to medical appointments, or connecting them with support services, or raising funds and awareness. Our goal is to be there by your side in a partnership against cancer – either for yourself or a loved one. Know you’re not in this alone.
