You could help change someone’s life in Shoalhaven (cancer is expensive) by easing the financial burden of cancer treatment
Cancer is expensive - it is almost always more expensive the further you live from a metropolitan area. The aim of our service is to help local cancer patients with the associated treatment costs - traveling to treatment (e.g. petrol vouchers), paying for accommodation, utility bills, groceries, and helping them with out-of-pocket medical expenses. There are many cancer treatments that are not available at the Shoalhaven Cancer Care Centre. This often means a drive to Canberra or Sydney (5+ hours return). We are a grass roots volunteer community where every cent raised by the branches stays within the area to be spent on local cancer patients. COVID-19/droughts/fires/floods have greatly impacted our fundraising activities, but the need to provide financial assistance to these people has never been greater.
