CanRevive inc.is a not for profit organization, established in 1995 by two cancer survivors & a carer to support Chinese speaking people through their cancer journey. The aim is to help to minimize the impact of cancer on patients and carers by providing information and support services to cater for their cultural and linguistic needs. Three Chinese women, two former cancer patients and one former carer, experienced the benefits of support groups and the value of information during their battle with cancer. It was their wish that Chinese language speaking cancer patients will be able to have similar supports in their own language With the help of Cancer Council and a generous donor who provided free meeting rooms, the women began to offer information service and group meetings in Chinese languages in July 1995. They called their organization "CanRevive". It was the first time such a service was ever offered in Australia. 更生會為澳洲首個非牟利的華人癌症資訊中心及支援組織，並與新州癌症協會有緊密的聯繫。本會由兩位癌症康復者及一位關顧者於1995年成立，秉持著「抗癌憑此道，生命齊再造」的宗旨，為癌症病患者及其家人提供支援服務。 在1995年，兩個癌症康復者和一個病人關顧者，以過來人的身分，充分瞭解患病者在語言跟文化上的需求。他們決心要打通言語的隔膜，溝通社會文化的分歧，充分利用本土對病人扶助的資源，創辦了更生會。這三位傑出的女士創立了一個澳洲前所未有的志願機構。 更生会为澳洲首个非牟利的华人癌症资讯中心及支援组织，并与新州癌症协会有紧密的联系. 本会由两位癌症康复者及一位关顾者于1995年成立，秉持着「抗癌凭此道，生命齐再造」的宗旨，为癌症病患者及其家人提供支援服务。 在1995年，两个癌症康复者和一个病人关顾者，以过来人的身分，充分了解患病者在语言跟文化上的需求。他们决心要打通言语的隔膜，沟通社会文化的分歧，充分利用本土对病人扶助的资源，创办了更生会。这三位杰出的女士创立了一个澳洲前所未有的志愿机构。
