For too many of us, cancer will be the barrier to the long healthy life we all want and plan for.
For others, poor physical or mental health will stand in our way.
Research increasingly points to social isolation and a lack of connection as a serious threat to wellbeing - and not just in older people.
CanToo Programs help people smash these barriers. Through participation, connection, a shared purpose, the encouragement of others, increased physical activity, and the satisfaction of making a positive difference to an important cause.
How you can help
Pod sponsorship helps break down the financial barriers preventing us from reaching more people: more participants, more fundraisers, more donors, and ultimately, more cancer researchers.
By sponsoring an upcoming pod for a fixed financial amount, you can help participants achieve their goals, improve their health and fundraise for cancer research.
To discuss how we can partner to achieve incredible impact, please email info@cantoo.org.au or phone 02 9360 8350
"The ability to triple a donor’s impact on cancer research through a swimming pod sponsorship at the Can Too Foundation exemplifies the power of its well-conceived philanthropic model.
Such a sponsorship covers essential program costs and contributes to Can Too’s mission to promote health amongst the community. It also enables participants to raise money for inspiring early-career researchers such as Dr. Holly Holliday at the Children’s Cancer Institute.
This strategic, collaborative approach to fund raising for cancer research is helping facilitate the discovery of break throughs that will save lives.”

To be able to leverage a $10,000 donation to raise over $200,000 for Australian early-career cancer research, while helping people get fit and healthy, is the ultimate goal of being a pod sponsor.
There is a special bond when training with CanToo that only comes from within the culture of the organisation and the elation from race day makes you so proud to be part of it.

"It’s an incredible privilege to be in a position to be a Pod Sponsor for CanToo. The money we donate invests in two things, the health and wellbeing of wonderful everyday Australians, and in early-career cancer research.
With 1 in 2 people getting cancer in their lifetime and 1 in 3 cancers being lifestyle related, investing in CanToo is a no brainer!"

CanToo Founder, Pod Sponsor
Our donation is really a social investment. A $10,000 donation to the CanToo Foundation can enable 50 or more people to be trained, who in turn raise $40,000 - $100,000 for cancer research. The result is that a group of people get fit and healthy, set a great example to all around them and fund far more early-career cancer research than I could ever support alone.
