Get involved and help Queenslanders living with cancer by volunteering. Volunteers are the heart of our organisation. Join us to make a greater impact and connect with like-minded people.
Every contribution helps support those living with cancer. Whether a one-off donation or monthly gift, your support ensures funding stability for long-term goals and future generations.
Leave a legacy by including a gift in your Will, starting a tribute page for a loved one, or funding a research grant for early-career cancer researchers driving clinical innovations.
Organise a fundraising event in your community, either as a team or an individual. You can join one of our existing fundraising events or you might like to come up with your own way.
When organisations work together, we can have a greater impact for every Queenslander going through cancer and help amplify our message for all Australians.
However you get involved, you’re making a direct impact on the lives of Queenslanders affected by cancer. See the results of what we’ve all achieved.
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.
