You can help in so many ways by getting your family and friends or businesses and schools to help.
See our inspiring ideas below.
First, please consider donating, as every dollar will support kids with cancer, and their families.
Childhood Cancer Awareness Month was first proclaimed in 2010 and since then it has become a global initiative, raising awareness for childhood cancer.
The Gold Ribbon is the International Awareness Symbol for Childhood Cancer, with gold being the international colour of childhood cancer awareness.
There are no limits to what you can do to fundraise during September to support children with cancer, and their families.
We have listed some of our favourites below - although we challenge you to use your imagination, get creative and we invite you to contact us to help turn your idea in to action!
Make an impact this September by wearing GOLD. We have gold shoelaces, gold ribbon earrings, scrunchies, lapel pins, wristbands and yellow awareness ribbons available to buy. Shop online.
Make us your Charity of Choice for the month and donate a percentage of sales or services to the Childhood Cancer Association during September. Contact us to get started.
Time to be courageous, make a difference and Be GOLD. Create your own event, like a sporting contest or physical challenge, or be brave with a bold haircut or even shave your head. Set up your online fundraising page or join our City-Bay Fun Run team.
Get creative and organise a fundraiser during September. You are only limited by your imagination - think quiz nights, gala dinners, sausage sizzles or bake sales. Download our Fundraising Toolkit.
Host a Gold Round at your local sporting club or ask your team or fitness group to wear our GOLD shoelaces as a show of support to children who will be diagnosed with cancer. Buy shoelaces online.
Join our Childhood Champion community with a regular donation each month to ensure children with cancer get the ongoing support they need. Join this September, or anytime it suits you.
Get your workplace, school or community group involved in giving virtual high fives to kids with cancer with every $5 donation. You can also show off your collective impact on a nearby wall or window. It's easy to get started, contact us to set it up.
Become a digital ambassador and share social media posts about childhood cancer and the work that we do to increase awareness. Or you can download & share our digital assets.
By making a personal donation or asking others to Give GOLD can turn into a BIG total. You might even ask for donations alongside a casual day, morning tea or crazy sock day. Make a donation.
