The Chad Hancock Foundation in conjunction with the Women's & Children's Hospital Foundation and with the help of Sharon Bowering (Cancer Care Coordinator Adolescents & Young Adult) have set up a support fund, with the sole purpose of helping those suffering with cancer to pay those bills that continue to roll in.  

We are happy to say that since the inception of this fund, we have payed over $30,000 worth of bills, including power bills, council rates, telephone bills and even providing food vouchers to ensure that there is food in the house when they leave the hospital. 

This is one of the reasons the foundation was first established and as long as our money is going to the right people, will continue to throw our support behind this very important program.

Sharon has provided us with a thankyou from one of the couples we have helped:

Dear Chad Hancock Cancer Foundation

We would just like to say a huge thank you for the support that we received via Sharon, Kate and your AYA cancer group.  We had an electricity and phone bill paid by your organisation and it really helped relieve some of the financial pressure during my cancer treatment.

Thanks Heaps

Brenton & Leanne

This makes it all worthwile!!!
