In celebration

A meaningful gift with impact

Whether it's a wedding, birthday, anniversary, or a festive occasion, choosing to donate to Australian Cancer Research Foundation (ACRF) adds profound meaning to your special day. It's not just a celebration; it's a step towards pioneering discoveries in cancer research.

At ACRF, we’re committed to backing brilliant research by enabling scientists with cutting-edge technology and resources. Our goal is simple yet ambitious: to unlock new methods for the prevention, detection, and treatment of all types of cancer.

Celebrate your special occasion

Dedicate your birthday, naming day, bar mitzvah, wedding, Christmas, Hanukkah or other special occasion by donating or raising funds for cancer research. Ask for a donation instead of a gift, or use your celebration to raise funds. It’s up to you how you wish to support.

Your contribution to ACRF will help give scientists the technology, equipment, and infrastructure essential to accelerating life-saving cancer research.

Wedding gifts that give back

Make your special day even more meaningful by supporting life-saving cancer research. Instead of traditional gifts, couples can invite guests to donate in celebration of their wedding. ACRF also provides wedding materials such as ribbons, favour cards, and balloons to help honour your generosity.

With a $2 per guest donation, you'll receive a ribbon and favour card, making a lasting impact on cancer research. Contact us to explore how we can help make your wedding day extra special.
