Become our Partner in Research

Because research takes time, every second counts, every second makes a difference in saving a life.

The kind of research that we do at The Baird Institute is costly and takes many years. The more financial resources we have, the quicker we can do our research and the more lives we can save.

People like you make our research possible. Without you, our advances would not be possible.

That is why we urgently need Partners in Research who can join us to ensure that we can fund our research on an ongoing and continual basis.

Partners in Research gifts provide a solid and reliable income stream, which gives Baird Institute researchers the financial stability to know that their research will continue longer-term and empowers them to research well.

The guarantee of ongoing, regular income from our Partners in Research is one of the most effective ways for us to plan our research and respond to developing advancements while remaining flexible and independent.

But more importantly, when every second counts, it is the most critical way we can save lives – both today and in the future.

As such, there is an urgent need to build up our regular funding through our Partners in Research program.

Please consider helping The Baird Institute today by becoming a Partner in Research and giving each month by direct debit from your credit card or bank account.

While we have made such amazing progress that has led to us saving so many lives, the research of tomorrow is even more critical to helping so many more of our fellow Australians when they need it the most.

And remember, every gift counts when saving lives.

You can choose to donate any amount that suits you
