The Australian Cancer Research Foundation (ACRF) is dedicated to helping find the cures for cancer through continued funding for world-class cancer research in Australia. The cancer charity foundation is dedicated to finding a cure for this devastating disease which affects one in three Australians.

Established in 1984, the cancer charity has evolved into one of Australia’s leading not-for-profit organisations. In 27 years, the Australian Cancer Research Foundation has funded $79 million in grants to support leading Australian cancer research initiatives. Almost 70% of these funds have been awarded in just the last six years, reflecting the need for ongoing investment in medical research in Australia.

Every dollar of every donation (100%) received by the ACRF goes to cancer research. In particular, it goes to research with the power to beat cancer, research that is vital to the development of effective treatments and diagnostic measures for all types of cancer.


Our vision is of a world where cancer research scientists are enabled and equipped to achieve things tomorrow that they could only dream of today, to eradicate cancer and its affects on people.
