Shine a Light Walk Sydney 2025

I will walk with my lantern because I am thankful for how far medical research and progress has taken me on this journey despite a stage 4 lung cancer diagnosis almost 2.5 years ago.

Did you know lung cancer is Australia’s biggest cancer killer?
Research offers hope and your support helps keep hope alive for the 15,122 new Australians living with lung cancer. Together, we can help shine a light on lung cancer and fund groundbreaking research.
Every year, the Shine a Light campaign raises funds to brighten the future for Australians living with lung cancer. With your support, Lung Foundation Australia provides seed funding for the best and brightest researchers to undertake projects that support discoveries towards the prevention, management and cure of lung cancer. Scientific breakthroughs can take years to accomplish but every dollar makes a difference to the lives of people impacted by lung cancer. Alongside research, practical support is just as critical, so we empower people living with lung cancer to make informed choices about treatment and management, through Lung Foundation Australia's Lung Cancer Support Nurse service.
Where there is light, there is hope. Every dollar builds a brighter future for Australians diagnosed with lung cancer.
Join me in fundraising, donate or join a community walk today. You will make a difference.
