The Kids' Cancer Project
The Kids’ Cancer Project is an independent national charity supporting childhood cancer research. Since 1993, thanks to strong community support, the charity has contributed tens of millions of dollars to scientific research projects to help children with many types of cancer. Founder, Col Reynolds OAM, has a steely focus to make a difference to the lives of kids living with cancer. It all started on an ordinary day in the late 1980s when the bus driver was driving his empty tourist coach past the Children’s Hospital in Camperdown, Sydney. After stopping to let two youngsters with bald heads cross the road, he parked his vehicle and went into the hospital on the spur of the moment. Touched by the spirit of everyone he met that day, Col made it his personal mission to help kids with cancer in any way he could. Very early in his quest, he learned the only way to improve outcomes for these children would be through advances in medical research. OUR MISSION To support bold scientific research that has the greatest chance of clinical success in the improvement of treatments of childhood cancers. OUR VISION One hundred per cent survival of children with cancer while eradicating the harmful impacts treatment can bring.
