Pledge 450
Tue 1 - Wed 30 Apr 2025
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.
Liam’s Story: Why Pledge 450 Matters
Liam was a cheeky, courageous boy who loved cricket, soccer, and his dog, Billy. At six, he was diagnosed with leukaemia, turning his family’s world upside down.
The Childhood Cancer Association (CCA) became the Dunn Family's lifeline, offering professional counselling, financial aid and vital support.
When Liam’s diagnosis became terminal, CCA’s help was invaluable. “It changes you as a person and a family,” says his mum, Emma.
That’s why Pledge 450 matters. By donating $450, you can provide essential services to families facing childhood cancer. Families just like Liam's. Join us in making a difference today.
