Giving Philosophy
Cancer Council NSW operates as a service-delivery charity rather than a traditional grant-making foundation. Their 'giving' approach focuses on direct support to individuals through services like the 13 11 20 Information and Support Line, pro bono legal and financial assistance, and financial counselling. They also fund research and community education programs, believing in addressing cancer comprehensively from prevention through to support for those diagnosed.
Tips for Applicants
Cancer Council NSW primarily delivers services directly to individuals rather than providing grants to other organizations. Those seeking support should call their 13 11 20 Information and Support Line. Organizations seeking partnerships or research funding should contact them directly through their website. The pro bono program connects cancer patients with legal and financial professionals - patients can access this by calling the support line. Fundraising partnerships and volunteer opportunities are available for community organizations.
