Footy Colours Day is a national fundraising event in September where thousands of Aussies come together, proudly sport their team’s colours, and raise money so kids don’t fight cancer alone.
Being diagnosed with cancer as a child changes everything. School. playing with friends, and sports are replaced by the scary world of cancer treaments – often far from home and usually for more than six months. Finding accomodation during that time can be an enormous financial and emotional stress for a family.
But you can help give families the accomodation they need to stay together.
By hosting a Footy Colours Day and raising money, you’ll be helping provide families with a place to stay during treatment – so they can fight cancer as a team.
Footy Colours Day celebrates all footy codes! Whether you follow Australian Rules, Rugby League, Ruby Union or Football, wear your favourite team’s colours proudly!
