World Child Cancer USA

🎗️ Cancel Child Cancer is a global campaign by World Child Cancer USA, dedicated to improving cancer diagnosis, treatment, and access to care for children around the world. Most childhood cancers are curable. We know this because survival rates in high-income countries like the USA and UK regularly top 80%. But, for children in low and middle-income countries, the prognosis is bleak. Their chance of survival fell lower than 30%. Did you know that every three minutes a young life is lost to childhood cancer? The challenge is ensuring every child gets the diagnosis, treatment, and care they need. Yet in many countries, public and professional awareness of childhood cancer is dangerously low. Opportunities for early diagnosis are missed. Referrals are delayed. And there are not enough health workers with the specialist skills to diagnose and treat the disease. It is children and families that pay the price. Determined to balance this inequity, World Child Cancer works with local, regional, and international partners in 12 program countries across Sub-Saharan Africa, Asia, and Central America to improve treatment, early diagnosis, family support, awareness, and advocacy.
