Our Impact

The funds you raise as a Purple Collective member directly supports PanKind's mission to triple the pancreatic cancer survival rate by 2030 and dramatically improve outcomes for people impacted by the disease.

Since 2008, PanKind has been dedicated to improving outcomes for people impacted by pancreatic cancer. As Australia’s only charity focused solely on this disease, we lead the charge in raising awareness and collaborating with top local and international institutions to drive change.

We’ve invested over $14 million across 66 research projects, working with Australia’s top scientists to fund breakthroughs in early detection, new treatments, and optimising current therapies. Our investment has helped secure an additional $10.1 million in pancreatic cancer research funding, further amplifying our impact.

Through our national Patient and Carer Hub, we support people impacted by pancreatic cancer by providing relevant information, valuable resources and a connection to others affected by the disease.

Right now, in Australia...


People are diagnosed with
pancreatic cancer every day.

People die from pancreatic
cancer every week.

People die from pancreatic

These stats are devastating – but the funds you raise WILL save lives.

Together, let's stand strong and take action to see a world without pancreatic cancer.
