Give In Memory
Losing someone you love or care about to GI cancer is very difficult but sometimes these final moments can make a lasting difference to others. In lieu of flowers, please consider “In Memory” donations. You can honour a loved one by supporting innovative research and improving the health outcomes for future generations.
For more information, please contact Melanie on (02) 9562 5379 or email melanie@gicancer.org.au
Create an online In Memory page
We can support you in setting up an online fundraising page or you can easily create your own.
An online In Memory page can provide a simple way for people who knew your loved one to make a donation in lieu of flowers – whether they are able to attend the funeral or not.
Collect donations at a funeral
To request donations from your guests in lieu of flowers, we can provide you with donation envelopes to distribute to those attending the funeral of your loved one.
Contact Melanie on (02) 7208 2713 if you would like us to send you donation envelopes.
Alternatively, we can send these directly to the funeral home at your request.

"Netts was a strong supporter of the GI Cancer Institute. I hope, by doing an In Memory page, the funds raised will contribute to the development of effective treatments for GI cancer, allowing patients to overcome or manage the disease and continue long and productive lives. This would be Netts' legacy."
