Congratulations Molly.
2025 NSW Volunteer of the Year Awards.

2025 Central Sydney Young Volunteer of the Year
Molly Croft

Brave 18-year-old Molly Croft turned pain into purpose after being diagnosed at 12 with a rare form of aggressive bone cancer, enduring treatment that removed most of the bone in one leg and part of a lung. Molly has since given her time to raise over $2 million for children’s charities, including $1 million for cancer research as co-founder of The Tie Dye Project. She moved from her home in Dubbo this year to study at Macquarie University and is a strong public speaker, championing awareness and funding for sarcoma research and mental health resilience.
