The Kids’ Cancer Project funds 53 research projects across Australia, with many of them requiring help from families and patients who have experienced treatment for childhood cancers.
Some are simply surveys and interviews, while others require participation in post-treatment programs designed to help kids with cancer survive and thrive.
All participation is completely voluntary, but as you know, it all helps to ensure that children with cancer, both present and future, receive the best treatment possible.
Below is a list of opportunities for families to be involved in research projects. This list will update as projects finish up or new ones come along.
If you would like more information regarding anything mentioned above – or the projects below – please contact us at support@tkcp.org.au.
