Cancer Care for Children in The Philippines

Organization information

World Child Cancer

Location: London, United Kingdom

Summary

We work on the island of Mindanao in the Philippines, at the Southern Philippines Medical Centre (SPMC) and five other Shared Care Centres. We support these centres to increase childhood cancer diagnosis and survival rates by helping to train local healthcare professionals. To remove barriers to accessing - and continuing - treatment, this project also helps to support families most in need by funding medical and travel costs. We expect to see around 350 children being treated this year.
