More about Shoot for the moon

The Cancer Society helps and supports anyone with any kind of cancer through their cancer diagnosis, treatment and recovery.

By taking part in Shoot for the Moon, you’re helping to ensure cancer patients get the free care and practical support they need; from accommodation when undergoing cancer treatment far from home, to assistance from supportive care staff, and help to get to and from treatment.

The Cancer Society also funds cancer research and raises awareness about ways to reduce cancer risk such as being SunSmart and Smokefree.

You choose when and how to shoot for the moon.

You can complete this challenge by yourself or with team-mates and you can shoot your goals at home, down at your local park or court, during practices and games.

You can spread your challenge out over the whole month or really push yourself and make a day of it! Invite the family and bring the folding chairs (and coats)! Get a sausage sizzle going (another great way to get more dosh). And have fun, while you help fight cancer.
