Hudson Maher Foundation (AU, 63930510931) Browse events

YTD Raised: $0.00

  It's hard to imagine anything more heartwrenchingly painful than discovering your child was suffering from a life-threatening disease.   Yet, for some people, this trauma can be made even more difficult to cope with by the acute financial pressures that can arise when seeking the necessary medical treatments.   While private health cover can help with the treatment itself, there are often a number of associated costs that can stretch parents to breaking point – at a time when they may be forced to cease work indefinitely and hence stop earning an income.   Practical, day-to-day financial assistance in times of extreme need.   For parents of children needing life saving bone marrow transplants, the Hudson Maher Foundation can provide financial support to help cover associated costs of specialist medical treatment, such as: Inter and intra-state travel to locations of specialist treatment. Temporary rental accommodation. Travel to and from treatment centres. All other on-going domestic bills. In late 2003, South Australian basketballer Brett Maher, Adelaide 36ers captain and multi-Olympian, and his wife Tanya tragically lost their little boy, Hudson.   Hudson was diagnosed with a rare bone marrow disease called Haemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) when just 3 months old. Compounding the situation, the specialist treatment he required was available only in Sydney, so the Mahers had no choice but to take on the considerable cost and disheaval of temporarily relocating.   Sadly, of course, Hudson lost his brave fight. But despite Brett and Tanya's grief, they were deeply touched by the incredible support and assistance given them by the South Australian public during his illness.   And their lasting appreciation has inspired them to help others cope, financially and emotionally, with similar crises in their own lives, through the Hudson Maher Foundation..

Australian Lions Childhood Cancer Research Foundation (ALCCRF) (AU, 73902500922) Browse events

YTD Raised: $0.00

  Just over 600 children are diagnosed with childhood cancer each year in Australia.  Tragically, 3 of those children will lose their battle with cancer every week.  Medical research is the key to finding a cure for childhood cancer and ultimately putting an end to this heart breaking situation. Many people and organisations generously support childhood cancer research.  Lions Australia has been supporting childhood cancer research at least as far back as 1976.  Lions formalised its support for childhood cancer research over 13 years ago by establishing the Lions Cord Blood & Childhood Cancer Research Appeal, the forerunner to ALCCRF which was established at the 57th MD Convention in Melbourne in May 2009 as a category "A" Project.  ALCCRF's vision is 100% survival of kids with cancer.  Today survival rates average 80%.  There is much work that still needs to be done, if one day we are to prevent all kids with cancer from dying. Funds you and your clubs donate to ALCCRF will go to the best childhood cancer research conducted right across Australia which specifically targets improved survival rates. We believe every child deserves a chance at a healthy life and we can all do our bit to help. Thank you, Dr Joseph Collins, ALCCRF Chairman

The symptoms of MS vary enormously and may include: Vision and speech difficulties Fatigue Loss of mobility and co-ordination Muscle weakness Incontinence Problems with memory and concentration MS is an unpredictable, progressive disease for which there is no known cause or cure.However, advances in treating and understanding MS are being achieved and research suggests genetic and environmental factors play major roles.
