BTAA Member Sponsorship and Educational Grants
BTAA offers two types of sponsorship to our financial members.
Educational Grants - which are available to our financial members who are nurses and other allied health professionals, or researchers, with a particular interest in supporting people living with brain tumours.
- Grants are available to attend events like COGNO in Australia and SNO, ISPNO and ASNO internationally. Download the guidelines here.
Supporter Sponsorship Grants - which are available to our financial members who provide peer-to-peer support. eg Those who run support groups, those who volunteer for the Cancer Connect Service, those who manage a dedicated online support page.
- Financial assistance is provided to enable our members to attend the BTAA National Summit, held in conjunction with COGNO. Grants are on a case by case basis and depend on the distance to be travelled, other income sources etc.
BTAA reimburses expenses up to $600 for a national event or $1,500 for an international event, upon presentation of receipts for travel, accommodation or registration. More $ may be available at the discretion of the BTAA committee.
These grants are paid for out of BTAA's donation revenue. Thank you to our donors.
