Story
Hi there!
I’m raising money for a cause that's close to my heart. My life and that of those who cared for me has been affected by this disease and more needs to be done to understand the causes. Please support my efforts by making a secure online donation and by posting a message of support.
Donations made through this platform are secure and will be remitted directly through to my charity of choice.
Thanks so much for your support!

Dementia Australia Research Foundation
Who we are
The Dementia Australia Research Foundation (previously known as the Alzheimer's Australia Dementia Research Foundation) is the research arm of Dementia Australia.We fund researchers across all stages of their career but maintain a particular focus on supporting Australia’s talented new and early career dementia researchers. We believe science holds the key to ending dementia, so our annual Dementia Grants Program provides funding to support innovative Australian research to:
- Better understand the causes of dementia
- Develop strategies to reduce dementia risk and slow the progression of the disease
- Provide accurate and timely diagnoses
- Improve treatment and care options for people living with dementia
- Find a cure
Why we invest in research
Dementia is the second leading cause of death in Australia and there is no cure. Currently, more than half a million Australians are living with dementia and an estimated 1.6 million Australians are involved in their care. Without a major research breakthrough that can prevent, delay or cure dementia, the number of people with dementia in Australia is set to rise to 1.1 million by 2056, with an estimated cost to the economy of $36.85 billion.
The Dementia Australia Research Foundation believes that research holds the key to caring for people living with dementia today and finding a cure for tomorrow. To give our best and brightest scientists a fighting chance against dementia, we need to maintain a level of funding that allows them to carry out their work. To achieve this, we need your help!
