Apart from our current appeal, there are many areas that will benefit from your support. Whether it’s addressing the world’s most devastating diseases, helping young people understand risky behaviours, or purchasing vital equipment to continue our research, you can make a real difference today.

Donating to support what’s most important to you

We want you to feel great about donating to the Institute. Tell us if there’s an area you would specifically like to support or you can leave it to us to direct your donation to where the need is greatest.

Fellowships

At a time when many graduates move overseas to advance their career, Burnet aims to retain the brightest and the best by providing opportunities that keeps the knowledge here in Australia. Fellowships funded by donors allow recognition of the donor’s support for an important area, and provide the opportunity for Australian scientists to develop novel approaches to global issues.

Student Prizes

Each year Burnet awards prizes for excellence in various areas of research and scientific advancement. Sponsorship of these prizes allows us to provide additional learning opportunities for our students such as the sharing and development of their findings at international events.

Equipment

State-of-the-art equipment is crucial to the efficiency and outcomes of our research projects. We share facilities with our partners and other institutes but rapid changes in technology mean we’re always in need or new or upgraded equipment.

Event Sponsorship

Burnet holds numerous events each year to recognise supporters, staff and to raise funds. Sponsorship is a vital part of the success of these events. Ruth Rosh, Head of Advancement, will be able to help with any queries you may have.

Workplace Giving

Why not team up with a group of workmates, contact us and see what we can achieve together. A deduction from your pre-tax salary is the most efficient way for you to support us. Often your employer will match what you raise helping your donation go even further!
