Get Involved

Our vision for the future is to defeat melanoma. The Hunter Melanoma Foundation is on a mission to reduce mortality rates of melanoma through support, research, and education about prevention and early detection.

Get involved and help raise funds to defeat melanoma

For over 35 years the HMF has been working to defeat melanoma – but we can’t do it with out you.

There are so many ways to get involved: make a donation, become a member, volunteer your time, host a fundraiser, attend one of our fundraisers, sign up to our newsletter, or simply share our messages on social media.

Every action, big or small, helps raise awareness, support patients, and fund life-saving programs across our community.

Become a MelanChamp

Become a MelanChamp today and help us work toward a melanoma free future.

The MelanChamp campaign was created to honour the life of Darren Farrelly. Darren’s life was cut short by melanoma in 2023.

By becoming a member ($11 per year) and committing to a monthly donation, you’re supporting the cause – one month at a time and becoming a part of our MelanChamp community.

Gimme 5

The Gimme 5 campaign honours the life of Scott Polglase, who lost his battle with melanoma in 2006 at just 28 years old.

One of Scott’s quirks was his aversion to five cent pieces—so in his memory, his family began collecting them and donating the proceeds to HMF. Simply contact us to obtain a money box, fill it and bank it and you’ll be contributing to Scott’s legacy and the vital work we do at HMF.
