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. Local cancer patients are also welcomed to drop in during the day.
Our Supporters
Our Branch would not exist without our members, volunteers and community supporters. We thank them for their contribution.
