Pledge 450

Wed 1 - Thu 30 Apr 2026

Every year, 450 families rely on the support of the Childhood Cancer Association during the most difficult time of their life. This April, you can make a difference in their lives by joining Pledge 450.

We’re calling on individuals, teams, and communities to raise $450 each by taking on a personal challenge inspired by the number 450. Whether it’s physical, creative, or something completely unique, make it fun and meaningful for you. The possibilities are endless.

It’s your challenge, so you’re only limited by your imagination and you can choose to tackle it in a day, a week, or throughout the month of April.

When Thomas was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia, life changed instantly for his family. In those first overwhelming days, the Childhood Cancer Association stepped in – offering kindness, essential items and a sense of support that the family desperately needed.

“Childhood Cancer Association have been by our side since our diagnosis and we are eternally grateful for the support they have shown us,” Thomas' mum, Morgan, shared.
