Fundraising Toolkit

Help Raise Funds for the Lupus Foundation Australasia

Together, we can raise awareness, fund research, and support Australians living with lupus.

Whether you’re hosting a morning tea, running a marathon, celebrating a birthday, or creating your own challenge — every fundraiser makes a difference.

Why Fundraise for Lupus?

Lupus is a chronic autoimmune disease that can affect the skin, joints, kidneys, brain, heart, lungs, and other organs. It is often invisible, misunderstood, and difficult to diagnose.

Your fundraising helps:

  • Increase awareness of lupus in Australia

  • Support education and advocacy initiatives

  • Help connect people living with lupus to resources and community support

  • Contribute towards future lupus research initiatives
