Lung Foundation Australia is committed to providing support, information and resources to every Australian impacted by lung disease and lung cancer to help them live their best life.
It is through the vital generosity of our community, from both donations and events, that we can provide our free life-changing programs and support services. In Australia, 1 in 3 people will be impacted by a lung condition in their lifetime. It is essential that we are able to keep up with the rapidly growing demand for our services.
By getting involved and supporting us you can help us fund world-leading research, provide life-changing support services, and advocate for every Australian affected by lung disease and lung cancer. Big or small, your support can make a difference.
There are a range of different ways that you can get involved.
Become a Regular Giver
Giving regularly on a monthly basis provides us, and the people we support, the certainty that we can maintain, grow and improve our services and programs.
Regular giving doesn’t have to be large to make an impact. By pledging $5, $10 or $20 a month, you can help provide a steady stream of support that can help shape the future of Lung Foundation Australia.

Leave a gift in your Will
Leaving a gift in your Will is one of the most powerful ways to support the causes that matter to you.
It costs you nothing during your lifetime but leaves a legacy of hope for future generations. Your generosity will support ground-breaking research, as part of our Hope Research Fund, and fund life-changing advancements in lung disease and lung cancer research.

Become a fundraiser
Community fundraising is a fun and exciting way to raise much needed funds and awareness for lung disease and lung cancer. Whether you hold an event like a luncheon, ask people to support you as you take on a physical challenge like a marathon, or get creative and perform 30 acts of kindness; holding a community fundraising event allows you to get involved and get creative.
Hundreds of Australians each year get involved with us to help make a difference.
Throughout the year we have two key events that we encourage you to join:
Challenge 30 in March is a virtual event that runs for 300 hours (12.5 days) where participants theme their challenge around the numbers 3, 30 or 300.
Shine a Light on Lung Cancer in November, held during Lung Cancer Awareness Month, aims to raise awareness, break stigma and support research into lung cancer. You can sign up for one of our community-led walks throughout the country or develop your own fundraising event– the choice is yours!
Funds for Lungs runs all year round, providing you with the flexibility to fundraise anytime, anywhere, with any activity.
