In a direct effort to make a tangible difference in the lives of children with cancer and their families, Childhood Cancer International (CCI) has launched the giving2children crowdfunding platform. This global platform is exclusively dedicated to childhood cancer and aims to rally support from individuals, organisations, and communities worldwide to provide critical resources and strengthen childhood cancer care and support systems.

giving2children is more than just a fundraiser; it is a call to action for all who believe that every child deserves the chance to survive and thrive. The initiative is designed to raise funds for essential programmes and projects, where people need it the most. All projects displayed for fundraising are reviewed and monitored by Childhood Cancer International.

Several inspiring projects are already live on giving2children, and you can already be part of real life-changing stories:

• “National Insurance Fund Support Program” (Kenya): Supporting 500 children to access essential monthly cancer treatment.
• “Basic ICU Equipment” (Mexico): Providing medical equipment and hygienic products in the pediatric oncology ward.
• “The Milk Program” (India): Ensuring 400 children receiving treatment at charitable hospitals receive nutritious daily milk servings.
• “Activities for Families at YOAI Shelter” (Indonesia): Supporting 15 children and their families with emotional and psychosocial support.
• “Join Hands with CHOC” (South Africa): Offering access to treatment and care for youth living with cancer, and their caregivers.
• “Treatment Done. Now What?” (Greece): Supporting survivors post-treatment to educate key partners about childhood cancer and late effects.

Childhood cancer remains a significant global health challenge, with survival rates varying dramatically based on geography and socioeconomic factors. While children in high-income countries experience survival rates as high as 80-90%, those in lower-income regions face much steeper odds.

With giving2children, the funds raised directly address these disparities, bringing hope and lifesaving support to children and families who need it most, all around the world.

CCI invites everyone to join this meaningful journey. Whether through a one-time donation, by setting up a creative campaign for your community, or by spreading the word, every bit counts. giving2children provides an opportunity to contribute directly to initiatives that save lives and alleviate suffering.

Visit CCI’s giving2children website to learn more, donate, or get involved.

Together, our collective efforts can amplify the impact and bring us closer to a world where no child dies of cancer.
