Unicorn Foundation NZ aims to provide support and accurate information to patients, families and medical professionals involved in NET cancer. We support clinical research and we are lobbying for funding and further treatment options to become available to NZ patients.
Unicorn Foundation NZ brings patients together either in person or online by building a community to ensure patients no longer feel isolated with their diagnosis. UFNZ has also contributed and influenced clinical research projects, ethical committees and continues to have an on-going dialogue with the medical professionals who are at the forefront of treating NET's.

Green Light for PRRT! 1 October 2020
After years of lobbying (and patience) the formal announcement that interim PRRT is starting this month (September 2020) in Auckland and we couldn't be more pleased!
This is a brilliant result for patients and our NZ NET community. Getting this long-awaited treatment up and running has been a real team effort across a number of organisations, as you will see in the full press release on our website.
Unicorn Foundation NZ couldn’t be more grateful to EVERYONE involved for their mahi in bringing this to fruition. Your donation here, as little or as much as you were able to give, your support, contributions, encouragement and commitment are the reason this essential treatment option will now be available New Zealand. THANK YOU!!
Nga mihi,
Michelle Sullivan, CEO
