YTD Raised: $0.00
(AU, 86605357879) The Warwick Cancer Foundation is the first non-profit organisation in Australia focused on supporting young adults under 40 during their cancer treatment. The foundation also supports carers of those currently in treatment and survivors aged under 40. Young adults are the fastest growing demographic among over 10 million new cancer diagnoses each year worldwide. While there are many cancer related organisations in existence today for children and older adults, there are none that focus on meeting the needs of young adults past the age of 25. Young adults with cancer can experience a unique set of issues and challenges: • Feelings of anger, panic, denial, guilt, uncertainty, shock and fear • Feelings of isolation and disconnection from family and friends • Fear of mortality • Emotional distress • Loss of independence • Financial pressure and uncertainty- many young adults do not have sufficient health or life insurance to cover expenses and time away from work • Fertility Preservation • Intimacy and Relationship changes The Warwick Cancer Foundation’s programs and services have been developed under psychosocial guidelines to address key issues faced by young adults with cancer. • Peer to peer support programs aim to reduce isolation, destigmatise cancer and normalise side effects of cancer treatment • Social media platforms provide a safe environment to communicate feelings of depression, anxiety and fears related to cancer. Many young adults with cancer are unable to voice their fears to loved ones and friends for fear of `burdening’ them • Provide a safe environment to connect with others who are currently in treatment without fear of judgement of physical appearance • Promote psychosocial support to assist in coping skills for different stages of cancer and survivorship • Provide age appropriate information and referral • Awareness campaigns to promote prevention of cancers in young adults To learn more about The Warwick Cancer Foundation and the work we do, visit

Hunter Prostate Cancer Alliance (AU, 19231156786) Browse events
YTD Raised: $0.00Hunter Prostate Cancer Alliance is challenged to provide primary care support for men, their partners, families and colleagues when they seek information and services relating to a diagnosis of prostate cancer. We also work to encourage men over 40 years of age to take advantage of the simple "Little Prick" test know as a PSA test. This test is performed by your GP and looks for Prostate Specific Antigen which can be the first indicator that something is wrong with the prostate. Early diagnosis of prostate cancer increases the likelihood of a full cure. The Alliance is firstly targeting men over 40 years of age as the chance of developing prostate cancer for such a man is 1 in 8 throughout his remaining life. Also, men with a family history of prostate cancer as they have a risk of at least three times greater, than those who do not have such a family history, and should be tested from the age of 40. To assist individuals and groups of men and women with information about prostate cancer, in order to promote rational testing of men for this disease and to encourage the development of intellectual and emotional support systems for men diagnosed with prostate cancer and those supporting them. Advocate a strong awareness within the Hunter New England region of the need for immediate initial testing and thereafter regular prostate cancer testing as frequently as available evidence dictates in order to curb this disease in its onset. Provide primary care services to newly diagnosed men, their partners, families and colleagues to understand and come to terms with the complexity of this disease along with the variety of options available for treatment. Encourage the development of services that will promote a positive mental outlook for those affected by this disease and in those supporting them. Emphasise the importance of continued education to recognise and deal with the many far reaching effects of prostate cancer, including the fact that many low grade cancers may be safely monitored without treatment.
