“Children’s Cancer Institute is thrilled to announce the launch of its inaugural Philanthropy Board, bringing together a group of highly connected leaders across philanthropy, business, investment, communications and community networks to help build new momentum behind the Institute’s mission to cure every child of cancer.
The Board will be chaired by Tom Dery AO, an experienced board and marketing communications adviser, founder of MandC Saatchi in Asia Pacific, and the long-serving former Chair of the Australian Cancer Research Foundation. He will be joined by Paul Curnow, Vivien Phung, Natalie N, Simon Ingram and Justine Morton as founding Directors.
The Philanthropy Board has been established to open new conversations, deepen relationships and connect Children’s Cancer Institute with individuals, families and organisations who share its ambition to transform the future for children with cancer.
Children’s Cancer Institute Executive Director Professor Louis Chesler said the Board would play an important role in helping the Institute reach new audiences and build the philanthropic partnerships needed to accelerate discovery and breakthroughs.
‘Every year in Australia, more than 1,300 children and adolescents are diagnosed with cancer, with many children facing lifelong health complications caused by the very therapies that save their lives. At Children’s Cancer Institute, we are working every day to change that.
The launch of our Philanthropy Board is about bringing more people into our mission — people who can help us build the relationships, resources and momentum needed to find safer, more effective treatments for every child,’
Professor Chesler said.”
