Childhood Cancer
We aim to help those affected by childhood cancer to survive and thrive.
The family is the nucleus around which most communities are built. The next generation’s ability to thrive is closely tied to the support of the local community. Lions and Leos have seen and felt the effects of cancer on children and their families, and continue to bring hope through tangible service and support.
- A child is diagnosed with cancer every two minutes
- There has been a 13% increase in incidence of childhood cancer over the last 20 years
