Fundraise

Why your help matters

In WA, five women are diagnosed with breast cancer every day.

From their first appointment to life after treatment, Breast Cancer Care WA is there, offering specialist nursing counselling and practical help with the things that suddenly can feel overwhelming.

We receive no government funding. Every service we provide is made possible thanks to the generosity of our community.

When you choose to fundraise, you’re making sure this care is here for anyone who needs it, anywhere in WA.

Your fundraising in action

Every fundraiser helps deliver critical moments of care. From nurses at diagnosis to counselling for families and wellness programs after treatment.

It takes our team to regional and remote communities, ensuring the same specialist support is available everywhere in WA. It also provides practical help including groceries, fuel, childcare and cleaning, easing daily pressures when life changes overnight.

Your efforts turn compassion into action, bringing free, personalised care to those who need it most.

Telling my kids was the hardest of all. They all cried and asked if I was going to die. I told them no, I’m tough and I will crush this.

It was this decision, that upon reflection, I wish I had made earlier but I have since learned that you can’t change the past, you just have to try your best and move forwards.

Anne

The actual experience of jumping out of a plane was just amazing. I’m so glad I did it.

Di

I’m a busy mum and I don’t often have time to prioritise myself first, it is always everyone else in the house and then if I have time I will do something for myself. But I thought yes, sure, I will do this for myself.
