NFHC FAQs

This September we are asking you to commit to the NF Hero Challenge. That gives you 30 days to challenge yourself physically, mentally or emotionally; face a fear or give something up you can’t live without. Raise money for the Children’s Tumour Foundation and find your inner strength.

Anyone! Whether you’re an individual, a team, a bunch of mates, or an entire sports club – registering for the NF Hero Challenge is easier than you might think. If you’re under 16, you’ll just have to get parental consent first (it’s a legal thing) – but use it as an excuse to get them to sponsor you! 

Download the Parental Consent Form.

Once complete send a scanned copy or photograph to fundraising@ctf.org.au

It is completely FREE to register and participate in the NF Hero Challenge.

Yes, they will, however it will not link with your online fundraising page. If you let us know about your Facebook fundraiser, we can keep track and add this to your page at a later point. Click here to find out how to set up a fundraiser on Facebook.

Facebook donations are handled and held by a third party, and Facebook doesn’t have the functionality to sync donations to a fundraisers page at the moment. We’re working with Facebook to try to find a solution for the future, but currently we advise you to let us know if you set up a campaign or post as we do not get notified if you set up a fundraiser.

Definitely! We’d love to see what you’re up to. You can post your photos directly onto our Facebook and Instagram pages and tag us in stories and posts on Instagram with @ctfaustralia. Don't forget to use the hashtag #conquernf and #nfherochallenge so we can like or share your post!
