Stuck for ideas on how to raise funds for thoracic cancer research??

Host an event where each attendee makes a minimum donation to attend. Trivia nights, a wine tasting tour, a dinner party or BBQ, a morning tea, a karaoke night, a scavenger hunt, a dog walk, a music gig, a comedy night, host a bushwalk….the only limit is your imagination

Undertake a personal challenge and collect sponsors. Join #TeamTOGA in various running events, complete 1000 push ups in a month, master the habit of 30 burpees/day and fine yourself $1 for each burpee you don’t complete, choose your favourite form of exercise and up the ante by pledging to complete a certain distance or time, give up sugar for a month.

Involve the family. Create a swear jar, host a garage sale and donate the money taken, provide a neighbourhood car wash, celebrate your next special occasion by requesting donations for lung cancer or mesothelioma research in lieu of gifts.

Current Campaigns

#TeamTOGA is reassembling for the 2023 Sun Herald City2Surf. Walk, jog or run the 14 km course from Sydney’s CBD to Bondi Beach.

Is there any better excuse to get together with TOGA members and supporters than at City2Surf? Join their efforts by fundraising and participating yourself or donating to their campaigns.

Donate or fundraise by setting up your own individual fundraiser page.

‘When cancer took my grandma, I lost a part of me. It was heartbreaking to watch her suffering in pain and breathlessness. Her fight with the incurable did not end with her last breath.’

Medical research is vital to improving the lives of lung cancer sufferers and I need your support to raise much needed funds for lung cancer research.

Past Successful Campaigns

The City2Surf campaign met our fundraising goal. Our goal for 2022 was to raise $20,000 and we surpassed this and have raised close to $30,000.

Thank you to all the members and supporters who participated in the campaign to help raise funds and awareness for lung cancer research.
