Who We Are

For over 30 years Challenge has supported children and families living with cancer. You can find out more about our history and values, as well as the many people who have contributed to this vital work.

Our History

Challenge was established as an auspice program of the Australian Red Cross in 1983. By 1990, Challenge had expanded from providing an annual camping experience for children and young people living with cancer to become the first organisation in Victoria to provide a range of ongoing support and recreational activities for families living with cancer.

Our Values

Our promise is to deliver practical, personalised services of exceptional quality to ensure that children and families living with cancer are well supported throughout their cancer journey. We do this by staying true to our values.
