Volunteer with SCHF for Walk for Kids with Cancer

Walk for Kids with Cancer

Join us for our annual scenic journey from Neutral Bay to Manly, bringing the community together to support lifesaving cancer treatment and groundbreaking research across the Sydney Children’s Hospitals Network.

Walk for Kids with Cancer raises vital funds for children and families facing cancer, with proceeds supporting frontline care at:

• The Kids Cancer Centre, Sydney Children’s Hospital Randwick
• The Cancer Centre for Children, The Children’s Hospital at Westmead

As the exclusive charity partner, Sydney Children’s Hospitals Foundation (SCHF) helps ensure patients and families receive the very best care — now and into the future.

💜 The Impact You’ll Make

• Accelerate research into rare childhood cancers

No child should ever go through cancer — but those who do deserve our all.
