Care That Reaches
Join us this International Childhood Cancer Day as we raise awareness of childhood cancer globally while advocating for care that is truly holistic and people‑centred.
Sustainable, people-centred care
Survival and recovery depend on more than treatment alone. Children and families need emotional support, continuity of care, and practical solutions that allow them to access services consistently.
This International Childhood Cancer Day (ICCD), we’re highlighting transport support as a powerful example of what people-centred care looks like in practice.
For many families, getting to hospital is the first barrier to accessing treatment, as the journey is often long and expensive. This ICCD, you can help children with cancer reach life-saving care. Your donation will be a step towards a brighter future, where getting to hospital isn't a barrier to recovery.

Why Transport Matters
In many low and middle-income countries, childhood cancer treatment requires frequent, long-distance travel. When transport costs are unaffordable, families face significant financial and emotional strain, leading to impossible choices. Lack of safe, affordable, and reliable transport can delay treatment, cause interruptions in regular appointments, prevent follow-up care, and increase the risk of treatment abandonment.
By meeting practical needs, we help families focus on what matters most, supporting their child through treatment and beyond.
When you donate, you help us to reach the children who need our support.
