$25 could help inform schools and child care centres about the importance of sun protection and in the long term help lower skin cancer rates.

$60 could provide copies of the Support and Information Pack to newly diagnosed cancer patients - a free resource containing sources of practical and emotional support.

$100 could pay for a helpline counsellor for half a day. Each year our helpline receives over 22 000 calls from across NSW for support and information.
