The NELUNE Foundation aims to provide psychological and practical support, assistance and care for public hospital and underprivileged cancer patients in the community – 'Helping Patients Fight Cancer With Dignity'.

The NELUNE Foundation is a not-for-profit charity that supports children, adolescents, adults and their families
to cope with the impact of cancer by providing emotional support, care and post-operative medical aids that are not covered by government or private funding.

To date, over $6 million has been raised by the Foundation to provide practical and tangible help for cancer patients receiving treatment in the NSW public hospital service.

The NELUNE Foundation was co-founded by two friends in 2001, Nelune Rajapakse OAM and Anna Guillan.

Nelune is a cancer survivor who knows and understands the difficulties of being diagnosed with this illness.
