All Queenslanders.
Every step of the way

At Cancer Council Queensland, we give comprehensive support to everyone affected by cancer, at every stage, from diagnosis through to life post-treatment. From practical assistance, such as accommodation for Queenslanders needing to travel for treatment, to emotional support through counselling and support groups, we are committed to ensuring nobody is left facing cancer alone.

How you can make in impact

One-off donation

Every contribution helps, so whether you’re donating to honour a loved one, leaving a donation in your will, or making a one-off contribution to cancer research and support, know that your compassion and care has real-world impacts, both now and into the future. 





Monthly donation

Committing to regular giving – even as little as $5 a week – means your generosity allows us to plan into the future. We use regular donations to fund research that helps create new treatments for the future and vital services for those going through treatment right now. This improves our ability to support Queenslanders going through cancer in ways both big and small, and further our goal of making things a little bit easier for everyone touched by cancer.

How your support helps Queenslanders

Karlie

“They [Cancer Council Queensland] offer an amazing service in terms of counselling and someone to talk to if you need to. And It's free, so the amount of support you get blows you away."
