We call it research. They call it a future.
Right now, every dollar you give will be doubled to fund life-saving research into lung disease and lung cancer.
Lung disease doesn’t discriminate. Ethan was just 11 when he was finally diagnosed after years of terrifying hospital visits. Trish was about to become a grandmother when she learned she had a progressive, incurable lung disease. Michel was 42, raising his kids alone, when he was diagnosed with lung cancer — and told chemo wouldn’t work.
What gave them hope? Research.
Research gave Ethan a diagnosis. It gave Trish a reason to believe she’ll see her grandson grow up. And it gave Michel a treatment that saved his life.
These breakthroughs only happen because people like you choose to support research.
Donate before midnight 30 June and your tax-deductible gift will go twice as far to fund the next life-saving discovery.
Give before midnight on 30 June and your donation will be matched dollar for dollar - doubling your impact on life-saving research.
How gift matching works
This tax time a generous major donor is backing life saving lung health research by matching every gift, up to $40,000. All one off donations made before midnight on 30 June will be matched until the $40,000 limit is reached.
Donations can be accepted by website and phone. If we reach the target before the deadline the website will be updated to reflect this.
