Families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food – because all a family should worry about is helping their child live. Treatments invented at St. Jude have helped push the overall childhood cancer survival rate from 20% to more than 80% since it opened more than 50 years ago. St. Jude is working to drive the overall survival rate for childhood cancer to 90%, and we won’t stop until no child dies from cancer. St. Jude freely shares the discoveries we make, and every child saved at St. Jude means doctors and scientists worldwide can use that knowledge to save thousands more children.

Early detection, Prevention, Treatment Support and Palliative Care For Cancer Patients.

NELLAI CANCER CARE CENTRE, A Project of Udhavum Ullangal Public charitable Trust will be setup as a 100 bed specialty cancer hospital providing affordable holistic cancer care to all close to their area of domicile. The vision is to provide every patient with cancer the opportunity to live a longer, healthier and fuller life. The hospital will provide an integrated multidisciplinary treatment for cancer incorporating a) evidence based clinical care supervised by a tumor board b) holistic integrated approach focused on the patients physical, psycho social and spiritual needs and c) advanced technology solutions and telemedicine to reduce overall cost and accelerating recovery rates.



Nellai Cancer Hospital will offer a cancer care value proposition that includes the complete value chain from awareness, screening, diagnosis, treatment and palliative care. Cancer awareness and screening programs have been operational since 2011. They have screened over 50 thousand people for oral, breast and cervical cancers. Referral cancer treatment services were commenced in 2016, followed by palliative care in 2018.



Nellai Cancer Hospital will be implemented in 2 phases. First a 30 bedded hospital will be setup and then a full fledged 100 bed hospital with state of the art facilities will be setup. The hospital will provide affordable holistic cancer care to everyone within 2 – 3 hours distance from their homes. Patients will receive high quality diagnosis and medical interventions in a timely manner without having to quit their jobs or being separated from their family and friends.



Extensive standard operating procedures will ensure transparency, governance and quality in line with the standardized protocols defined by national agencies such as NABH & NABL.



Holistic and complimentary therapies including Ayurveda, homeopathy, Sidha, Yoga etc will be extensively used under the strict supervision and recommendation of the tumor board.

ConnectMyVariant's mission is to end hereditary disease by bringing families together.

ConnectMyVariant is an educational health-focused 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that supports individuals and families with hereditary disease in their early detection and prevention efforts. We provide unique value by leveraging our evidenced-based family connection protocols to help people identify other at-risk relatives and help those relatives access genetic testing so that they can get optimal medical care. ConnectMyVariant brings people with the same genetic risk together through our variant database and community engagement events to share experiences and find common ancestors. ConnectMyVariant also works to increase awareness of the benefits of family outreach among physicians, others who provide prevention care, and the broader genealogy community.
 
Our key activities are:
   - Working with patients to implement personalized family outreach plans
   - Interactive educational workshops about sharing information on inherited disease risk
   - Variant specific family reunions to share stories and plan outreach to cousins
   - Genealogy assistance to help connect individuals in variant groups
   - Individual equity and inclusion grants for family and community outreach

Need and Impact:
When hereditary disease risk is known, family outreach has been proven to be the most effective and cost-effective intervention for early detection and prevention. This family outreach, also known as cascade testing, is recommended by multiple guidelines. Despite overwhelming evidence, family outreach assistance is not reimbursed by insurance or integrated into healthcare. Many people suffer and die from hereditary disease that could have been prevented or caught early.
 
We have shown that our strategies to encourage family outreach can act as a communication multiplier. Our pilot research at the University of Washington showed that this approach enhanced patient experience, was considered ethical, and was appreciated by newly identified relatives. Our approach is low-cost and is 25 to 50 times more effective than awareness and education interventions that target the general population.

Equity and Inclusion:
ConnectMyVariant is committed to being a leader for equity, diversity, and inclusion in hereditary disease prevention. ConnectMyVariant’s goal is to spread awareness among all individuals and families about inherited disease risk. All project staff, participants, and partners in ConnectMyVariant have an equal voice in developing innovative ways to improve hereditary disease outreach and prevention for all people. By fostering a diverse and inclusive community, we can provide knowledge and opportunities that have been historically inaccessible to millions of people.

To help and support paediatric oncology in Zimbabwe.

KidzCan is the only organisation in Zimbabwe dedicated to increasing the survival rate of children suffering from cancer and blood-related disorders.
The organisation was formally registered as a Private Voluntary Organisation (PVO) in 2009. It was directly evolved in volunteer work for over 15 years prior to that. 
A group of concerned volunteers initiated weekly visits to the children's wards of Parirenyatwa Hospital to play with the children and distribute some donated toys, sweets, or basic luxuries to the admitted children. 
In 1998 Andrea Whatman took over the coordination of this small volunteer group, a position she held until April 2014. 
In 2002, Dr. Orphard Mupanemunda (the only paediatric oncologist in Zimbabwe by then) and Andrea received a fully funded fellowship to St Judes Children's Hospital in Memphis, USA. 
On their return, Dr. Mupanamunda and Andrea committed to forming an organisation called Children's Cancer Relief, which to this day is now known as KidzCan Zimbabwe.
KidzCan supports Mpilo Hospital in Bulawayo(second largest city), Sekuru Kaguvi Eye Hospital, Sally Mugabe Hospital, and Parirenyatwa Hospital, which is the centre of excellence on childhood cancer.
From the days of only providing psycho-social services the basket of services is now full with others like the provision of chemotherapy drugs, bereavement assistance, CT and MRI scans and bereavement allowances. The institution also sources, and provides prosthetics, admission, discharge packs, and nutritional support in the form of food hampers as good nutrition is at the centre of treatment.
The organisation conducts awareness campaigns in schools, workspaces and the community, and individuals plus group counselling to children, parents, and caregivers. 
KidzCan has now introduced housing to the portfolio of services available, through the Rainbow Children’s Village (RCV), which basically is a halfway house for children and caregivers, who often come from remote areas, making it difficult for them to fulfil their appointments with doctors. 
KidzCan provides these services free of charge to childhood cancer patients who come through the public health system. 
The organisation serves up to 800 patients annually, of which new cases are around 350. 
With Leukaemia (blood cancer), Wilms Tumour (kidney cancer) and retinoblastoma (eye cancer) being the most prevalent, the cancers come in many different forms. 
All the services are provided free of charge.
KidzCan envisions a compassionate world where children who suffer from cancer and their families are given the chance to lead healthy and fulfilling lives.

We brighten hospital rooms for kids battling cancer with free, cozy bed sheets, bringing smiles to their faces.

Thousands of children are battling cancer in our hospitals every day. On a cruel and shocking night in early 2010 my young son became one of those kids, and he spent the next 18 months fighting a courageous and difficult battle beating cancer. He is an amazing son, brother and friend, and is our inspiration for Sheets from Home.

With each round of chemo, immunotherapy, or transplant, our son would spend many, many nights confined to his hospital bed. We brought lots of love, we brought courage and hope, and we even brought in toys; these were all important weapons in our fight. We also brought sheets from home, and this did unexpected and amazing things.

On the first night of his chemo at the hospital, we ripped off the white patient hospital sheets, and replaced them with sheets from home. He always had a fun and colorful bed with his friends SpongeBob, Spiderman or Darth Vader.

We thought this was just a small gesture but over the course of treatments, a nurse, another kid or a Mom would stand outside our hospital room and marvel at how the sheets brought life to the room. We were amazed at the positive impact and the smiles. And while it did not make the pain go away, his hospital bed which was his new home, could feel more like his real home. Each kid deserves this same feeling and we will make it happen with your help.

Sofia's Hope is a charity fighting childhood cancer with HOPE. Mission is to increase awareness, fund research & patient programs

Sofia's Hope was inspired by the life and death of Sofia Blanco at the age of thirteen.  And it is because of her and the over 17,000 children in the U.S. diagnosed every year with cancer that we will fight cancer by:

Raising childhood cancer awareness and the fact that children are dying every day waiting for promising new treatments;

Funding childhood cancer research and advances in treatment, especially as it relates to their long-term effects (including prevention, detection and treatment); and

Offering programs that enhance the quality of life of children with cancer.

CFFNM was established by a group of oncologists in response to the unique needs of cancer patients throughout northern New Mexico.

It was discovered that some patients, once diagnosed with cancer, were forgoing treatment because they couldn’t afford the costs associated with travel to and from the treatment center located in Santa Fe. Despite programs being available to cover medical expenses, it was the non-medical costs that posed the greatest barriers – like the ability to pay for gas or overnight lodging, especially when treatment is administered over a period of days or weeks.

The solution to this heartbreaking problem was to establish an organization with the capacity to identify and mitigate the obstacles to treatment faced by so many northern New Mexico residents. The Cancer Foundation for New Mexico was created specifically to address the overlooked, but critically important, needs of financially-challenged cancer patients and their families.

The Cancer Foundation for New Mexico has expanded its services from mileage reimbursement and overnight lodging to include the distribution of grocery cards, a growing network of support groups, and a team of trained volunteers to assist patients during treatment. The number of patients that seek out our services also continues to grow, and in 2019, we supported a record number of 28,000 patient visits.

We are the only local organization providing this level of support to cancer patients throughout northern New Mexico. A small staff and dedicated team of volunteers work together with the local medical community to increase awareness, identify patient needs, and administer services. We receive no state or federal funding and all money that we raise stays here in our local community.

No patient who qualifies for our assistance is turned away.

The Lundin Cancer Fund was created in honour of Mr. Lukas Lundin who died from glioblastoma, a form of brain cancer, in 2022. Lukas Lundin was head of the Lundin Group of Companies, a leading force in the mining and oil and gas industries. Entrepreneurial, and always adventurous, he was passionate about the resource industry and its power to transform lives. During the course of his illness, it was recognized that there was a considerable lack of awareness and treatment of various types of cancers, particularly brain cancers, as well as a lack of funding of clinical trials and new innovative research. He and his family wanted to change that. The goals of the fund are as follows:  - To fund brain and other cancer treatment and research, the Lundin family and KBF CANADA established the Lundin Cancer Fund at KBF CANADA. - To encourage international collaboration and sharing of scientific data.

We reduce deaths from breast cancer by providing access to screening, diagnostics and treatment services for all women.

The Rose addresses any barrier that might keep a woman from caring for her own needs. Studies show women often put personal needs on hold while tending to the needs of others. Many women cite costs and lack of access as reasons they delay preventive services. Yet early detection mammography screenings are the most powerful weapons in the fight against breast cancer—which is 98% curable when detected early.

Every service offered by The Rose is available to the uninsured through one of many sponsorship programs. In fact, the whole purpose of the Empower Her® Sponsorship Program is to ensure any woman has access to breast cancer screening, diagnosis and care. From the initial screening mammogram through diagnostic procedures such as ultrasound and biopsies, as well as access to treatment—all are part of the quality breast health care offered at The Rose.

Because every woman deserves The Rose. Every woman deserves quality breast health care.

American Friends of Institut Curie - Marie Curie Research and Cancer Care Center in Paris

Follow in the footsteps of Marie Curie and join the fight against cancer 
 
 A leading player in the fight against cancer, Institut Curie - Marie Curie Research and Cancer Care Center in Paris brings together an  internationally-renowned research center  (1,200 researchers from 80 countries) and an  advanced hospital group  that provides care for all types of cancer – including the rarest forms. Founded in 1909 by  Nobel laureate Marie Curie , Institut Curie is historically located in the heart of Paris, France but also in the nearby cities of Saint-Cloud and Orsay with a  cutting-edge protontherapy center .  Every day, more than 3,600 researchers, physicians, caregivers,technicians, and administrators work together to defeat cancer. Institut Curie's work is built on three essential approaches: 
 Research 
 Care 
 Preserving an transferring knowledge 
 Institut Curie's Research Center promotes interdisciplinaryresearch through 12 mixed research units.  Translational research lies at the interface between basic and clinical research, aimed at facilitating and accelerating exchanges between cognitive research and research oriented towards patients and care. OUR PROJETC : BUILDING THE FIRST CHEMICAL BIOLOGY CENTER SPECIALIZED ON CELL'S PLASTICITY IN THE WORLD Institut Curie plays a major role in international chemical biology research thanks to the work of Dr. Raphaël Rodriguez and his team and their recentground-breaking discovery on the role of iron in the metastatic dissemination. Institut Curie is building the Chemical Biology Research Center to support and build on this work by recruiting international research teams andlaunching new multidisciplinary research approaches. It is the first center in Europe specialized in addressing fundamental questions in cancer cellplasticity and its link to metastatic spread and cancer treatment. The new Chemical Biology Research Center will be co-directed by Dr. Fatima Mechta-Grigoriou, PhD and Dr. Raphaël Rodriguez, PhD. The Chemical Biology Research Center will support research to: 
 Study cancer cell activity in a biologicaland chemical level, discover new biological features underlying cancer progression 
 Identify and develop small molecules to be used for new treatment aiming to target cancer cell plasticity and block cancer cells from spreading 
 Discover new druggable targets, design new therapeutic angles and pathways to cure cancer 
 
 
 ABOUT CHEMICAL BIOLOGY 
 Chemical biology is the work in chemistry which is of biological interest and to that work in biology in which the chemical approach is used to solve biological problems.  Dr. Linus Pauling 
 Chemical biology is one of the fastest growing areas of cancer research today. This field of research has the potential to uncover the underlying causes of cancer progression and find out how to stop cancers from spreading to different parts of the body, also called metastasizing. Today, metastasis causes 90% of cancer deaths. Finding the key to block metastatic spread will have a tremendous impact on cancer survival and discovering pathways to a cure. Chemical biology uses of chemical principles and tools to solve pressing problems in biomedical research that are challenging to address using classical methods, such as those routinely used in cell biology, genetics, and biochemistry. The discipline involves chemists and biologists to work together on small molecules that have the potential to impact patient care one day if turned into drugs. 

As a private charitable foundation since 1921 Institut Curie is supported by donations, grants and bequest. Your support is essential to save more lives.  Together, let's beat cancer!

Special Love's mission is to provide a community of support for children with cancer and their families.

For nearly 40 years, Special Love has provided a strong, nurturing environment for children with cancer and their families through its free camps and get-away weekends. We have also offered emergency financial assistance,  educational scholarships for young adults who have beaten cancer and are ready to move on with their lives, and scholarships for their siblings.

Special Love’s Camp Fantastic is a protocol within the National Cancer Institute and a recognized charity within the National Institutes of Health

Since its inception in 1983, children have come from the Washington metropolitan area, as well as from areas across the country through partnerships with the National Cancer Institute and Mid-Atlantic area hospitals.  

Each year, Special Love serves hundreds of children, families, and young adults, and receives no government funding.  All operating funds are provided by individual, corporate, and foundation donors. Children who participate in and benefit from Special Love's programs range in age from 7-17 years of age, and young survivors ages 18-30 years of age.

~Camp Fantastic – is held at the Northern Virginia 4-H Center located in Front Royal, Virginia; and welcomes more than 100 children each year who are actively in treatment, or survivors up to 5 years past treatment as they adjust to their “new normal.”   Campers range in age from 7 to 17.
~BRASS Camp and BRASS Weekend – stands for BRothers And SiSters.  BRASS is designed specifically for the siblings of our patients, as well as bereaved siblings.  BRASS offers them a place for open, honest dialog with other campers and counselors to ensure they too are enveloped in a strong support system where they can put the family trauma of cancer away to spend time being a kid, with the focus completely on them. 
~Family Weekends – a weekend getaway experience for the whole family that provides patients, families, survivors, and bereaved families the opportunity to join together and share what they have learned with each other on their cancer journey. These weekends also provide quality family time, which is scare during a cancer journey, and patients, survivors and families the opportunity to discuss how they are coping, or have coped; and why, even at the darkest times, there is room for joy.
~Parents Getaway Weekend – is a weekend solely for the parents of patients and survivors who are 30 years old or younger and still live at home, as well as bereaved parents.  The weekend is planned for parents, by parents to provide them with a safe place to share and support one another in a small group setting; and as an outlet to deal with the facts of cancer individually, and ultimately regain a sense of control.  The weekend welcomes parents of recently diagnosed patients as well, offering them a new community of support they will need on their child’s cancer journey.
Parents Weekend also provides the parents with spa-caliber treatment options such as massages, yoga, and make-up makeovers; as well as local activities and shopping, along with a Saturday night dinner dance.  All things they no longer have time to enjoy.

VOICE (Virtual Online In-Hospital Camp Experience
In 2020, when the nation shut-down due to the COVID19 pandemic, Special Love developed and launched VOICE (Virtual Online In-home Camp Experience) within two weeks to continue its mission of providing a community of support for the children and their families. The pandemic was not going to stop us, knowing the added turmoil the pandemic would make in the lives of families already dealing with the unthinkable heartache of childhood cancer, and children with cancer would feel even more isolated and alone. 
VOICE began with virtual campfires, fun short videos and small ways to stay connected, and as the pandemic continued, grew to include a virtual BRASS Camp for the patient’s siblings, offering an entire month of fun activities. That was soon followed by a week-long virtual Camp Fantastic, which brought all the joy of “camp” to not only campers confined at home, but those in the hospital as well. Each day started with morning assembly, and ended with virtual cabin chats. 
Prior camp, each camper was sent a “Camp in a Box” kit packed with everything they needed to participate in every activity.  
As the pandemic continued, VOICE grew into a twice monthly program reaching children across the country, and the Atlantic Ocean, and in the isolation of hospital rooms.


Emergency Financial Relief Program
A cancer diagnosis changes every aspect of a family’s life. Next to the well-being of a child, a parent’s most pressing concern is often financial.

Special Love provides emergency financial relief to families who have participated Special Love’s programming, as well as other families dealing with a child’s cancer. Assistance helps with non-medical financial needs such as utilities, rent and mortgage, as well as auto repair and payment and assisting in laying a child to rest.  

In 2020, Special Love experienced twice the number of requests than in previous years, and not only assisted with funeral expenses, but helped one young man keep the dream of a future family alive by paying the cost for storage of his sperm while he undergoes cancer treatment. 

Educational Scholarships for Cancer Survivors
Childhood cancer leaves families with debt, and some survivors with learning challenges that may make it difficult to attend, or get into a college or other post-secondary educational institution and trade schools.  Each year, Special Love provides 35 to 40 educational scholarships to young cancer survivors who have participated in Special Love’s programs to assist with books, housing, and tuition.

Special Love’s young scholarship recipients have endured challenges and heartache during their treatments and move on with their lives by exhibiting great courage and strength.  All have determined not to let cancer define them, or limit their futures.

✨More about b-present✨
The b-present Foundation is a nonprofit inspired by and founded in memory of 20-year-old Kirsten Westerman, who we lost to leukemia in 2016. Our work focuses on improving social support so adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with cancer between the ages of 15-39, and their communities of support, stay connected and are supported throughout treatment and beyond. 

b-present approaches this critical work from two angles: preventative and supportive. Creating awareness and providing the support network with tangible tools and guidance to navigate their support experience are vital first steps to preserving and sustaining that important community of support.

Fighting childhood cancer through recycling 


Banco de Tapitas began as a movement of young Mexicans, students and professionals, with the intention of Supporting the Fight Against Childhood Cancer through Recycling.  Banco de Tapitas seeks to provide comprehensive support to more than 1,000 children and young people in Mexico who have been diagnosed with cancer through recycling campaigns nationwide. Under the motto "If life gives you caps, don't throw them away!", in April 2016 we launched our first campaign on Facebook, which reached more than 2.5 million views worldwide, this being the moment to promotion of this project. Throughout its history, Banco de Tapitas has managed to serve more than 1,000 patients directly and just over 2,200 indirectly through its allies, achieving recognition from the Ministry of Well-being and the Líderes del Bajío program in the social sector.  The goal for this year is to deliver more than 6 million pesos in support to our patients financed by recycling programs, deliver more than 200 oncological wigs, operate 4 shelters and deliver 1 state-of-the-art device to hospitals and oncological areas most in need in our country. We will also begin formal operations in the United States.

“Knowing all your treatment options could be life-saving!” - Beat Cancer Foundation

The Beat Cancer Foundation is more than a not-for-profit organization. It's a lifeline for those affected by cancer, a beacon of hope for their families, and a catalyst for change in how we perceive and address this devastating disease. It was born out of the stark reality that cancer, a non-discriminatory menace affecting individuals of all ages, races, and socioeconomic statuses, is now the world's leading killer.

We have all been touched by cancer in one way or another - each life lost is a parent, a child, a sibling, a friend, a colleague, a neighbor. And though hundreds of billions have been poured into research and treatment, the number of lives succumbing to cancer annually is still staggering. In 2020 alone, cancer claimed nearly 10 million lives globally, reinforcing its position as the world's leading cause of death. Over 600,000 American lives are still lost to cancer each year, and it remains the second leading cause of death in the US.

But there is hope. The Beat Cancer Foundation is about fostering a supportive community and providing non-toxic therapies, repurposed drugs, and integrative treatments. Our goal is to repair and enhance the immune system, precisely target cancer cells, and minimize harmful side effects. We have been providing a guiding hand on the journey to recovery and remission.

We believe in a future where cancer patients can experience a better quality of life while fighting cancer and our goal is to help those impacted by cancer to make informed decisions and improve their chances of overcoming this disease by guiding them on their journey towards recovery and complete remission.

With your support, we can make this a reality. You're helping to create a new collaborative model that empowers the public and transforms the landscape of cancer treatment. Your contribution will make a significant impact on the lives of countless individuals.
