Peter MacCallum Cancer Foundation

The Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre is truly unique within Australia’s public health system, being the only hospital solely dedicated to cancer. It also houses the largest cancer research programs and laboratories in the country. This has given rise to many significant achievements, and earned Peter Mac an international reputation for excellence and innovation in cancer research, treatment and patient care.

Cancer touches all of us either directly or indirectly during our lives. Today, more than half of those diagnosed with cancer will have a successful response to treatment. This significant progress is due to the dedication of clinicians, nurses, scientists, volunteers and benefactors, who are all creating a better future for people touched by cancer.

It is widely thought that we have entered one of the most exciting new eras of cancer discovery and survivorship. Our scientific knowledge about the biology of cancer is growing at an extraordinary rate while new medical technologies have never been so sophisticated. With its unique expertise and dedicated focus, Peter Mac is best placed to leverage these important advancements. Philanthropic funds are vital to this cause.

Your donation will enhance the ability of the Peter Mac to achieve better health outcomes for people with cancer by providing funds for the very best facilities, medical equipment, educational programs and research initiatives. Your donation will make a real difference to improving the lives of those touched by cancer. We thank you.

Sir Peter MacCallum believed that nothing but the best is good enough in the treatment of cancer. With your help, we strive to maintain his dream.
