How we can help

The family*

We provide emergency financial relief to all families across Australia whose child has been diagnosed with a brain or spinal cord tumour.

How

speak with your hospital social worker or welfare officer and ask them to send a referral of consent to [email protected]. Keep a copy of this consent for information.
Email [email protected] directly and tell us your story and hospital contacts so that we can confirm your child’s diagnosis.

What is Next

You will have a travel wallet sent to your hospital or posted directly to you by registered mail containing food and fuel vouchers.
You will be able to send utility invoices to us by email and they will be paid directly.
You will be able to request further food and fuel vouchers by email or post.
Each family has access to the same pool of money and this is available until the total is reached or 2 years have passed since your child was diagnosed.
