This September, thousands of people will Light the Night at celebrations across Australia.
You can help create a sea of glowing lights by switching on a balloon to remember, celebrate and give hope to patients and families living with leukaemias, lymphomas, myeloma and related blood disorders.
Each balloon contains a tiny light and has a special meaning.
Enter a team and show people who have been affected by Leukaemia, Lymphoma, Myeloma and related blood disorders that they are not alone! |

Your superannuation and insurance rights
Accessing your super or making an insurance claim after you’ve been diagnosed with blood cancer can be a nightmare. And how do payouts affect your Centrelink entitlements? Trying to get a new insurance policy can be even worse, with many patients finding they’re denied cover. To help you understand your legal rights, Melbourne-based solicitor John Berrill has provided the Foundation with a series of factsheets.
To download the factsheets which contain a range of advice – specific for each State and Territory, click on the following link.
