Message from our CEO
Dear Friends & Supporters,
In 1987, when survival rates for childhood cancers were a fraction of what they are now, our name was Childhood Cancer Foundation – Candlelighters Canada.
Today, with the survival rate above 80%, Childhood Cancer Canada is the country’s leading foundation dedicated to funding national research while delivering critical education, community and connectivity programs to children with cancer and their families.
Through our national network of care we have been able to reach those who need our help. Our partnership with C17, the Council of Pediatric Hematologists/Oncologists ensures that the national research we fund improves health outcomes and quality of life for children and adolescents.
As we close in on 100% survival, we felt we needed a name that was more focused to represent an organization that has become even more pro-active and determined in improving health outcomes and quality of life for children and adolescents with cancer.
Childhood Cancer Canada, we have a new name and a new logo – connecting the nation in a common cause.
For any questions or concerns, please free to contact us on our toll free number: 1-800-363-1062, or send an email to [email protected]
Please give generously.
