Ambassadors

Become an Ambassador

The Kids’ Cancer Project Ambassadors are people from all around Australia who use their skills and influence to help tell The Kids' Cancer Project story. They advocate and fundraise for childhood cancer research in many different ways.

The one thing they all have in common is that they are making a huge difference - helping to grow The Kids' Cancer Project's influence and fundraising by raising awareness in areas of the community out of our reach. They care about children diagnosed cancer and like us, can imagine what a world without children dying of cancer looks like. 

Ambassadors are crucial to the work of The Kids' Cancer Project, come and join us!
