We love it when our supporters hold fundraisers on behalf of the HMF. Some, who have lost a loved one to melanoma, decide to honour their memory by holding a memorial event.
Some just want to help in whatever way they can. Whether it’s a ball for 400 guests, a high tea with a few friends, a corporate golf day or a sponsored trek around Australia… we’d love to hear from you!.
There are some conditions you will need to meet and a form to complete to ensure all is in order. We will help in whatever capacity we can to ensure your HMF fundraiser is a success! To obtain an Authority to Fundraise, please complete the form.
With your help, over the past 35+ years, we’ve been working to defeat melanoma—and we know the work we’re doing is making a real difference. But there’s still much more to do.
In the Hunter New England Local Health District, melanoma is now the second most diagnosed cancer (Cancer Institute NSW, February 2024), underscoring the urgent need for continued awareness, early detection, and prevention.
Nationally, melanoma remains the most common cancer among Australians aged 20 to 39. Your donation and ongoing support allow us to continue this life-saving work—funding education programs, supporting patients, and advancing research to reduce the impact of melanoma in our community.
