Making hope real …….. the story so far

Snowdome’s mission is to accelerate new therapies for Australian blood cancer patients to help them live longer, better lives.

Many worthy Australian charities and foundations raise money for blood cancer research. Others collect donations that fund vital support services for cancer patients and their families.

The Snowdome Foundation is different.

Formed in 2010, Snowdome has a deliberate mission to improving outcomes for Australian men, women and children with blood cancers. We aim to ‘unlock new treatments’ by channelling government and private philanthropic investment into early phase human clinical trials of next-generation drugs and therapies.

In doing so, Snowdome is distinct, yet complementary, to existing efforts from other organisations supporting Australians with blood cancers (myeloma, lymphoma and leukaemia). Our work aims to fill a ‘gap’, rather than overlapping or replicating activities that support the urgent needs of patients with blood cancers in Australia.

No other Australian organisation has this focus for blood cancer.
