Every child deserves the opportunity to grow up, chase their dreams, and live a long, healthy life. Unfortunately, for many children, cancer can rob them of that future far too soon.
At Children’s Cancer Institute, we are committed to changing this reality. Our research focuses on discovering better treatments and, ultimately, finding a cure for every child with cancer—because no child should have to face this battle.
The Diamond Ball is our premier black-tie gala that unites our most devoted supporters for an unforgettable evening of fine dining, exclusive entertainment, and impactful fundraising.
Featuring a world-class culinary experience, extraordinary auction items, luxury raffle prizes, and breathtaking performances, the Diamond Ball is more than just an event, it is a powerful movement dedicated to curing childhood cancer.
Join us as we take another step closer to a future where every child has the chance to fulfil their potential. Together we can and we will cure all children of cancer. It’s not if, it’s when.

A life should be long
Here in Australia, we have more than 1000 children and adolescents being diagnosed with cancer every single year. And every week, three young lives will be lost to the disease.
Children's Cancer Institute exists solely to put an end to childhood cancer through research. With supporters like you raising vital funds to support our research for kids like Harper/Huey, together we can ensure that every child has the opportunity to reach their potential.
Thank you to our 2024 Diamond Ball Ambassadors
