Tour de Cure

Welcome to Tour de Cure's online grant application service, powered by SmartyGrants.

 Annual Grants Round 2024-2025 Opened on 1st August 2024

Tour de Cure’s mission has always been to change cancer outcomes for Australians. Funding Australia’s Researchers, Scientists and Clinicians is how we build towards better treatment, diagnosis, prevention, and care. 

We were proud to be opening shortly a new Annual Grant Round for 2024, thanks to our passionate community, partners and fundraisers continued to support.

This year we will be welcoming Grant applications in these categories: 

  • Senior Research  
  • Mid-Career Scientist/Researcher  
  • Early Career Scientist/Researcher 
  • Postgraduate Research Students, PhD Scholarship 
  • Matching 
  • Pioneering 
  • Support 
  • Prevention 

The Tour de Cure Grants Committee maintains an ethical, independent, and transparent selection process whilst reviewing the grant applications. Tour de Cure is committed to funding innovation and excellence. We aim to see our finite funding resources leveraged as much as possible, supporting the best Australian-based projects and researchers. Tour de Cure is a cancer agnostic organisation, in that our aim is to cure all cancers and accordingly, we consider applications for research in any cancer type. 

Our ability to continue to raise funds from our generous supporters is based on us demonstrating in the selection process that the Committee select the best projects possible and ensuring proper ongoing project governance. All Grant applications are evaluated on merit.  

An EOI (Expression of Interest) application is required for all research grant categories, these go through a first round reviewed and recommendations are made by The Grants Committee. The successful applicants are notified and then required to complete a Full Grant Application process, these are vigorously reviewed, and recommendations are made by The Grants Committee to the TDC Board by Late November for final decisions.  

Successful applicants will be announced in late-December 2024. Funding takes place in March 2025. Funding is provided as either a one-off payment or paid by one or more instalments.
