International Childhood Cancer Awareness Day
Organizations around the world will join forces today to raise awareness for childhood cancer. The aim of the day is to help children with cancer get the best possible treatment and care, no matter where they live in the world, by raising both awareness and money.
The treatment and care of pediatric cancer patients requires a whole interdisciplinary team, to provide not just the medical treatment of the child (which may include surgery and radiation), but also the psychosocial support for the child and the whole family. Close cooperation between the medical team at the hospital and the parents of the child is considered to be an essential component of the successful treatment and care of the child.
Every advancement in curing childhood cancer has come through research. Please consider making a donation today by clicking the “Donate Now” button on our web site or sponsoring one of our events. Together we all can make a difference!
