When the cancer fight is only half the battle

Brave six-year-old Daisy Pearse is fighting cancer and winning. But her mother, Ash, says challenges beyond the hospital ward are a burden that regional families should not have to bear.

After the Pearse family was dealt the cancer diagnosis, they were thrust into the awful predicament of having no fixed place to live while Daisy was in hospital.

“Being told you’re going to get a room and then it falling through is so disappointing,” says Ash.


Fight Cancer Foundation found the Pearse family a long-term accommodation solution so the family could stay together.
But there are plenty more families like the Pearse’s who need our support. Please donate today.

Your Impact Going Into

Autumn 2024

Christmas Appeal: Our Grateful Thanks!

Thank you to all those who donated to the Christmas Appeal – one of the most successful activities in recent times. Your important donations have provided more than 20,000 nights of accommodation to patients and families, giving them heart and hope.

Footy Colours Day

We’re grateful to everyone who participated in Footy Colours Day – the national fundraising event held every September where thousands of participants from around Australia come together, to raise funds to help kids fight cancer. Last year we managed to raise an impressive $600,000 with 1,249 registered workplaces, schools and individuals!

Accommodation Houses

Our year has started off with patients enjoying morning walks, relishing the sunshine before the temperature gets too hot. Our supportive staff continue to look after our patients at FCF Accommodation Houses, ensuring they have a comfortable, supportive and warm space during a very difficult time.

Fight Cancer Foundation

Fight Cancer Foundation is a national charity dedicated to providing care, unique accommodation and support for cancer patients and their families and funding vital research into cancer treatment and cures.

Founded in 1989 as the Bone Marrow Donor Institute to establish Australia’s first bone marrow donor registry and find a cure for leukaemia, the organisation’s broader scope now provides support services for patients impacted by all types of cancer.

Our support services include accommodation for rural and interstate patients accessing major treating hospitals in New South Wales, Tasmania and Victoria, research into better treatments and cures, as well as education support to young learners undergoing cancer treatment.
