About THE CURE STARTS NOW
Brain cancer kills more children and young adults under forty in Australia than any other disease – an unacceptable statistic.
It is unfathomable to imagine the pain of losing a child, however, this was the reality of a Townsville family who lost their daughter to brain cancer at the age of nine, forever young. To honour a promise to her, her father founded The Cure Starts Now Australia.
Together with several founding Board directors and the commitment of a group of prominent local business people, The Cure Starts Now Australia was established in Townsville in 2010.
The foundation has clear line of focus - to fund research projects and trials into childhood brain cancer and advocate for better outcomes.
From humble beginnings, The Cure Starts Now Australia has grown in both awareness and advocacy. Governed by a board of seven directors, and managed by the CEO, the foundation has attracted the support of prominent ambassadors, partners and national sponsors who are invested in the cause, and operates with an annual calendar of events and opportunities for fundraising to support Australian childhood brain cancer research.
Since 2010, through a dedicated program of advocacy, collaborative partnerships and fundraising events, The Cure Starts Now Australia
has funded significant and innovative research grants throughout Australia.
COLLABORATION
Research grants are selected by our Medical Advisory Council which is an international panel of medical and scientific experts who aim to ensure transparency, improve research collaboration, and eliminate duplication in the pursuit of the cure.
We support and work with researchers and scientists in labs and clinics throughout Australia who work with a shared ethos that together they will find a cure.
A SHARED ETHOS
The Cure Starts Now Australia is a widely recognised and trusted foundation which works in collaboration with a range of research institutes and advocacy organisations with a shared vision of funding research and trials.
The foundation is supported by a group of collaborative members who are Australian-based not-for-profits working to raise funds for brain cancer research under their individual banners. Funding raised by our partners goes towards our overall contribution to funding the best research projects on the table.
Every dollar donated, every ticket purchased, every piece of merchandise you buy and wear, every partner, sponsor and
stakeholder who supports The Cure Starts Now Australia makes a considered investment in helping us to find the cure for childhood brain cancer and, in doing so, change the unacceptable statistic.
