Can You Donate Your Time or Expertise?

Volunteers are the heart of every charitable organisation, and at Lymphoma Australia, we truly value the support we receive. We welcome any help you can offer, whether it’s donating your time, skills, or expertise.

Throughout the year, we have various opportunities to get involved, and we’re always open to new ideas. If you have a specific skill set that could support our cause or would like to help in any way, we’d love to hear
from you.

Volunteer opportunities with Lymphoma Australia

We’re always looking for passionate volunteers to support our cause. Whether you want to help at upcoming events,
assist with behind-the-scenes tasks, or lend your professional expertise, there are many ways to get involved.

Event Volunteers

We regularly host fundraising and awareness events, and we need volunteers to help with roles such as set-up, merchandise stalls, and supporting participants.

Stay tuned for upcoming event details!

Specialist Skills

If you have experience in event planning, project coordination, marketing, communications, or photography/video, we’d love to have you contribute your skills to help us make an even greater impact.

Photography & Videography Volunteers

We’re looking for volunteers who can help us capture key moments—whether it’s at events, patient interviews, educational days, or conferences. Your photos and videos will help us share powerful stories, raise awareness, and engage the community in meaningful ways.

Practical Support

Help us pack essential resources, such as treatment support kits, patient information packs, and event materials. Your assistance directly supports those affected by lymphoma.

Useful Definitions

  • Refractory: This means the lymphoma does not get better with treatment. The treatment didn’t work as hoped.
  • Relapsed: This means the lymphoma came back after being gone for a while after treatment.
  • 2nd line treatment: This is the second treatment you get if the first one didn’t work (refractory) or if the lymphoma comes back (relapse).
  • 3rd line treatment: This is the third treatment you get if the second one didn’t work or the lymphoma comes back again.
  • Approved: Available in Australia and listed by the Therapeutics Goods Administration (TGA).
  • Funded: Costs are covered for Australian citizens. This means if you have a Medicare card, you shouldn’t have to pay for the treatment.[WO7]

You need healthy T-cells to make CAR T-cells. For this reason, CAR T-cell therapy cannot be used if you have a T-cell lymphoma – yet.

For more information on CAR T-cells and T-cell lymphoma click here. 

Special Note: Although your T-cells are removed from your blood for CAR T-cell therapy, most of our T-cells live outside of our blood – in our lymph nodes, thymus, spleen and other organs.
