Beloved Australian entertainer Michael Falzon passed away on 23 June 2020 after a year-long battle with a rare form of germ cell cancer.
Chris O’Brien Lifehouse, where Michael was lovingly cared for during his treatment, is the largest cancer clinical trial centre in New South Wales. Research and trials are carried out by the same clinicians who treat patients, shortening the path between discovery and new treatments.
Michael's family and wife Jane Cho encourage anyone who was impacted by his remarkable life to donate here, specifically to fund research, trials and resources for germ cell cancer and other lesser-known cancers.

I volunteered to work on the memorial, as I knew many people who had worked with him and had their lives enriched by knowing him - I don't think I could've held it together on the day if I'd known him personally, I was bawling in the wings as it was, and was frantically handing out tissues to everyone who came offstage. I wish I'd got the chance to work with him, but I got to experience how much he touched the lives of so many, and what a genuinely special person he was through the experiences shared at the memorial. He really was one of a kind.
