Together for children and adolescents with cancer

Every year in Switzerland, around 350 children and adolescents are diagnosed with cancer – including many very young children. Despite major advances in medicine, the disease remains an enormous challenge for those affected and their families.

In collaboration with our member organisations, we are committed to sustainably improving their situation across Switzerland. We advocate for comprehensive medical and psychosocial care, the best possible follow-up care, and targeted support for childhood cancer research – to ensure that affected children and adolescents have the best possible chances today and in the future.

Areas of activity

Our commitment to children and adolescents with cancer, as well as Survivors and their parents, extends across Switzerland – in a coordinated and sustainable way. Through projects, political engagement and awareness-raising activities, we create meaningful change and increase visibility.
