WELCOME
Testicular cancer isn’t new, neither is creating awareness about it and yet people still avoid talking about the disease.
The Blue Ball Foundation exists to raise awareness, provide education and support to young adult men, in an effort to raise awareness about depression and testicular cancer, the most common form of cancer in young men aged 18-39.

OUR VISION
• To raise awareness of Testicular Cancer. Mike Elliott and Jamie Morgan are both survivors of Testicular Cancer (You can read their story here). Around 700 Australian men are diagnosed a year. There is a 95% survival rate if treated early. It is one of the most common form of cancers in young men aged 18-39.
• The advancement of men’s health.
• To raise awareness of health related issues in men such as depression.
• To build a culture where embarrassment does not prevent men from checking ‘their boys’ by using comedy, education, and awareness programs.
• Use all forms of social media including Twitter and Facebook, public talks in schools, workplaces and community groups to encourage guys to think about their wellbeing.
• Raise awareness and funds via events for cancer related and men’s health projects.
