Your impact

At Children’s Cancer Institute, our belief is that a life should be long. That every child should have the chance to grow up and grow old. To plan exciting futures, chase their dreams, and fulfil their potential.

But cancer cuts life short for hundreds of children every year, before they’ve even had the chance to make their mark. Here in Australia, 86 kids are diagnosed with cancer each month.

Everything we do at Children’s Cancer Institute is about helping more kids with cancer not only survive, but go on to live long, healthy lives.

When you join 86K for a Cure, you walk or run for the 86 children who are diagnosed with cancer each month.

Every step you take, every kilometre you conquer will support vital research to pioneer safer, more targeted treatments for children with cancer, because every child deserves the chance to plan exciting futures, chase their dreams and fulfil their potential.

Together, we can and we will cure every child of cancer. It’s not if, it’s when.

My dedication for Marli Girl

I’m dedicating my 86km challenge to my beautiful Marli Girl. Cancer hit us out of nowhere, she fought hard! We got 1 day short of two months with her before losing the fight due to complications of treatment. I'm doing the 86km to help fight for improvement in childrens treatment and a cure for our future generations.
