Your Legacy of Discovery
Every breakthrough in cancer research begins with people who believe that science is the key to improving outcomes for patients and their families.
The Olivia Newton-John Cancer Research Institute is focused exclusively on creating a future where cancer care is more effective, tolerable and accessible.
Our team is passionate about developing more targeted treatments that target the cancer, not the whole person.
Whether you choose to give today, leave a gift in your Will, or do both, your generosity will make an impact on our lifesaving research.

CREATE YOUR LEGACY
There are many ways to make a lasting difference. Choose the approach that reflects your values and circumstances.
Give today
See your impact on research in your lifetime. A significant gift today can accelerate discoveries, support pioneering researchers and help bring new treatments to patients sooner.
Many supporters value the opportunity to see the difference their generosity is making right now.
Leave a gift in your will
Accelerate cancer discoveries beyond your lifetime. After providing for your loved ones, a gift in your Will is one of the most powerful ways to support future generations.
If cancer research has made a real impact on your life or that of a loved one, a gift to the science that made this impact possible is a meaningful way to demonstrate gratitude.
Your legacy will continue to fund research that improves outcomes and brings hope long into the future.
Do both
Make an impact on the research of today and tomorrow. Many supporters choose to give during their lifetime while also leaving a gift in their Will, creating immediate impact and lasting change.
