Harden-Murrumburrah BRANCH
Murrumbidgee Region
Assisting our community, locally…
ABOUT US
Can Assist Harden – Murrumburrah was formed in 2000 when it broke away from the Young and Boorowa branch following a very generous donation from the O’Connor family. Our branch is very generous with support and we are committed to ensuring that people within our community have access to cancer treatment and care. By providing accommodation, financial assistance and practical support we ensure that the same opportunities and treatment choices are afforded to our residents as those who live in city centres.
Our membership has grown considerably over the last ten years as we welcome and encourage younger members of the community to assist in fundraising for us. Every year we hold a major fundraiser and we have now claimed the 1st weekend of March every year as “Can Assist Weekend”. Various events including Dancing With the Locals in 2019 provide our continuing funds with fantastic support from the local community and businesses. Our events are important social gatherings for our community with all ages encouraged to be involved or attend. Every dollar raised stays local to assist!
YOU WILL NEVER WALK ALONE.
Areas Serviced: Galong, Harden, Jugiong, Murrumburrah, Nubba, Wombat
Financial Assistance
We understand that families struggle to cope with a reduced income as a result of a cancer diagnosis and that they face increased expenses from travel, accommodation and medical costs.
Accommodation Assistance
Lilier Lodge provides accommodation for people undergoing cancer treatment at nearby facilities including the Riverina Cancer Care Centre, Wagga Wagga Base Hospital and Calvary Hospital.
Purpose built by Can Assist and the Cancer Council NSW, with the support of local and regional communities, it is managed by Can Assist. The 21 bed lodge is a warm and supportive home away from home.
Our Supporters
Our Branch would not exist without our members, volunteers and community supporters. We thank them for their contribution.

Thanks, Ms Skinner!Can Assist always appreciates when someone chooses to include Can Assist as a beneficiary in their will.
With one recent bequest from a lady named Ms Skinner, we have already in this financial year been able to relieve the burden of accommodation costs for four country families when staying in Sydney to support their loved ones when receiving cancer treatment. Can Assist's network is so grateful for Ms Skinner's thoughtfulness in planning a bequest within her will.
We ensure the benefactors' lasting legacy will meet their wishes in supporting country cancer patients in NSW. Need more information?
