| The Daniela Dwyer Foundation was chosen by the Canberra community as the 12th and final charity partner in the 2025 Canberra Community Chest, allowing them to compete for their $50,000 share.
This is the Daniela Dwyer Foundation's second straight People's Choice victory, demonstrating the Canberra community's faith in and respect for the organization that seeks to raise money for brain cancer research.
Kevin Dwyer, the creator of the Daniela Dwyer Foundation, remarked, "It feels immensely wonderful and humbling to have the communities support once again."
"We are incredibly appreciative and proud of our devoted supporters who stick by us year after year."
"People can see the true progress being made through the liquid biopsy project and our bigger mission to alter how cancer is detected and treated, as seen by their continued faith in what we do."
The world's first digital liquid biopsy technology, developed by the Daniela Dwyer Foundation, is advancing ground-breaking research on brain cancer. Earlier this year, it began a stage one clinical trial in several Australian hospitals.
"With the help of the Community Chest, we can keep processing and increasing access to this innovative platform, which will ultimately help more patients and families benefit from earlier, non-invasive, and more accurate cancer detection and treatment options." "One of the most compelling examples of this impact comes from a stage four cancer patient who is currently moving toward full remission after receiving informed oncology treatment guided by the results of our platform."
"It is a concrete illustration of how community support and programs like the Canberra Community Chest are assisting in transforming cutting-edge research into tangible results for patients and families."
Twelve local organizations compete for their share of $50,000 at the Canberra Community Chest, which takes place on Sunday, November 23, 2025.
At a Black-Tie event on Thursday, November 20, each partner will be paired with an equine hero who will represent them in the race.
