Making a Difference with Beyond Bank
We are so thrilled to have received a generous donation of $3,236, thanks to Beyond Bank and their Community Reward Program. This program is a unique way for CLCRF supporters to contribute to childhood cancer research just by having a savings account with Beyond Bank.
We would like to thank Beyond Bank and their wonderful customers who have chosen CLCRF as their charity of choice with their Community Reward Account. This type of community support is so important for the Foundation to continue the important research into childhood cancer, to ensure future generations can live cancer free.
The Community Reward Account allows supporters to save their money and in return CLCRF receive a Community Reward Payment, based on the combined average annual balances of all supporter’s savings. Basically, the more you save, the more Beyond Bank will donate.
If you want to help make a difference with Beyond Bank and help support the Foundation, head on over to their website and start a Community Reward Account today!
Over $5,000 raised through Facebook
Did you know you can create your own fundraiser for CLCRF through Facebook?
Facebook’s partnership with PayPal through the PayPal Giving Fund has allowed users to set up their own fundraisers on the platform to support a charity of their choice. This wonderful initiative was established late last year and we are so pleased to announce that so far a total of $5,940.31 has been raised for the Foundation!
We are so glad to see our supporters making use of this exciting way to fundraise! This is a particularly great initiative to help make your birthday even more meaningful, with Facebook now prompting users to create a fundraiser ahead of their special day. If you create a birthday fundraiser, your friends will be invited to help you support the cause.
The service allows for secure online donations and there are no fees for the organisation or individual donors, meaning 100% of the funds are distributed towards childhood cancer research when you choose to fundraise for CLCRF.
CLCRF supports PayPal and Facebook’s commitment to enable greater charitable giving and we are happy to be able to give our supporters an easily accessible and uncomplicated way to fundraise.
If you would like to fundraise for CLCRF through Facebook, all you have to do is click the “create” button on the top of your Facebook page, then select the “Fundraiser” option. When asked what charity to donate to, simply search for “Children’s Leukaemia & Cancer Research Foundation” and you will see our account.

West Leederville Primary School Fundraiser
The wonderful students of West Leederville Primary School recently held a fundraiser to benefit CLCRF. On Friday 21 June, students and staff were invited to wear their pyjamas to school and bring a gold coin donation to celebrate the Winter Solstice.
We are thrilled to announce that through this fundraising event, a total of $667.10 was raised for The Foundation. This is a terrific effort!
Just by wearing their pyjamas to school, the staff and students of West Leederville Primary School have helped fund important research into childhood cancer and raise awareness for the Foundation.
This goes to show that there are so many ways to fundraise and help make a difference! We would like to thank West Leederville Primary School for supporting the Foundation through this fun initiative.
If you have your own fundraising ideas, our team is always ready to help you in any way we can! Simply email us or call our office on 08 9363 7400.
DM Roads Donates Old Mobile Phones
We were recently thrilled to receive a donation of old mobile phones from the lovely team at DM Roads in Maddington.
Thanks to our partnership with the Aussie Recycling Program (ARP), these mobile phone parts are either reused or sold as part of their environmentally conscious zero landfill policy. Proceeds from this process then go back to CLCRF. READ MORE
A Generous Donation from the APRA Social Club
CLCRF would like to thank the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) Social Club for their generous donation of $455.90!
Every fortnight, the APRA Social Club sponsors a charity nominated by an APRA staff member. The Social Club then publishes a short article about the charity, calling for donations, in their employee newsletter.
Generous Donation from Franklin Tate Estates
CLCRF would like to thank Franklin Tate Estates for the generous gift we received from their winery. The Tate family have kindly donated selected cartons of their award-winning wines for The Foundation to use at upcoming functions and events.
The Tate family have been making wine since 1969 and have vineyards located in the heart of the Margaret River region. They have become Margaret River’s most well-known winery and have been twice awarded “Most Outstanding Red Wine in the World” at the Wine Magazine International Wine Challenge.
CLCRF runs countless events throughout the year to help raise awareness and funds for childhood cancer research, so this donation will be extremely useful.
This is a great reminder that cash donations are not the only way you can support The Foundation. There are many ways you can help us to continue raising funds for the important research into childhood cancer.
