Philanthropy at Paspaley
Making a difference – it’s a phrase that’s close to our hearts at Paspaley.
Over the years, we have helped many worthwhile charities and causes, supporting initiatives committed to children, community, arts and culture.
Cancer research at the Garvan Institute of Medical Research
1 in 2 people will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. Cancer is a genetic disease: its root cause is changes in the DNA sequence and the way that DNA is packaged in our cells.
Our cancer researchers study rare and less common cancers, and cancers that run in families like the many forms of sarcoma, cancers that spread very quickly like pancreatic cancer, and common cancers that still resist treatment or come back including breast, lung, bowel and prostate cancer.
We work at the intersection of immunity and cancer disciplines. We have numerous clinical trials in progress to ensure our discoveries can directly benefit patients.
