Oberon BRANCH
Western NSW Region
Assisting our community, locally…
ABOUT US
Can Assist Oberon was formed in 2009. Our branch has been going strong for over 10 years and thanks to our generous community continues to do so. We have a small committee but we are all dedicated to help people in need when diagnosed with cancer.
Areas Serviced: Black Springs, Burraga, Chatham Valley, Duckmaloi, Edith, Gingkin, Gurnang, Hazelgrove, Jaunter, Jenolan Caves, Kanangra, Mayfield, Mount David, Mount Olive, Mount Werong, Mozart, O’Connell, Oberon, Porters Retreat, Shooters Hill, Tarana, The Meadows, Yerranderie
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.
Our Supporters
Our Branch would not exist without our members, volunteers and supporters both from within the community and further afield. We thank them for their contribution.
Our local football team, Oberon Tigers, every year do a major fundraising day for Can Assist. Each year they seem to raise more money than the year before. This is also with the generous donations from our local businesses.
Upcoming Events
There are no upcoming events.

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?
