“Research can give men confidence. It can give men choices.”
– Andrew, prostate cancer survivor
Your gift today can create a better future
You can help turn the research we’ve been waiting for into the discoveries we’ve always wanted.
When Andrew Bills signed his organisation up for a corporate health program, he had no idea it would save his life. “After having my check-up in the program, the results came back with an elevated PSA. I was only 52 at the time.”
“That led to my whole diagnosis. I had an aggressive cancer growing outside of the prostate.”
Today, five years into recovery, Andrew still faces the brutal facts of his diagnosis every day: “I’ve still got the possibility of a relapse hanging there, so I have PSA tests regularly, because it can still come back.”
Andrew knows that without early testing, his outcome could have been much worse – as it was for his best mate, Rodney:
“Rodney was diagnosed too late,” said Andrew. “He was only 44 by the time he was diagnosed, and there was nothing anyone could do.”
Today, your support of research can be the difference between a life lost to prostate cancer, and a life saved.

No man or his family should have to face the agony of a deadly prostate cancer diagnosis.
But the tragic reality is that 3,901 Australian men lose their lives to the disease every year.
1 in 5 men are likely to be
diagnosed by 85
Around 26,000 men are
diagnosed each year
11 men die each day
from
prostate cancer

Research holds the key to protecting the men we love from deadly prostate cancer. We can all make a difference for men like Andrew.
We must act now.
Only the research we do today can save men's lives tomorrow.
Please give generously to PCFA's Prostate Cancer Future Fund to help accelerate research into deadly prostate cancer, and speed the path to a cure for men whose lives depend on it.
