At Tour de Cure, we believe in possibility

In 2007, three mates – Geoff Coombes, Samantha Hollier-James and Gary Bertwistle – met up for a quiet coffee in Sydney.   

They wanted to make a difference and decided to see what disease affected the most Australians. With 1 in 2 men and women affected by cancer by the age of 85, they decided to focus their efforts on helping to find a cure for cancer.

When we started, people thought we were crazy. Our drive to tackle cancer as a whole, head on, not shying away from the enormity of it, was seen as a bit too audacious.

But thanks to the support of people like you, that goal of curing cancer – all cancer – isn’t so out of reach anymore. Our blue sky thinking and relentless energy means you’ve helped us to raise $118 million and counting.

We won’t stop until cancer does. With your support, we’ll continue raising money to fund the boldest research, the widest-reaching cancer prevention campaigns, and the support programs that make a real difference.

Are you ready to join us on the ride?
