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.
Local Queensland research, with a global impact.
Your support powers vital cancer research, saving and improving the lives of Queenslanders living with cancer. In 2023-24, we invested $11.8 million to conduct and support cancer prevention & early detection, treatment and survival.
We conduct research in five key priority areas: to help reduce cancer risk and improve early detection; to better support people affected by cancer; to understand cancer disparities across Queensland; to better communicate information about cancer; and to improve survival outcomes for children with cancer.
Cancer Council Queensland’s Viertel Cancer Research Centre advances cancer outcomes through research excellence and strong community partnerships. As Queensland’s leading not-for-profit cancer research funder, we support work across universities, hospitals, and research institutes. Our vision is a future where every Queenslander can reduce their cancer risk, feel supported, and no longer fear cancer.
Through our lifesaving research, seeking policy change and implementing prevention and early detection programs. From diagnosis to survival, we’re committed to helping all Queenslanders every step of the way.
