The number of new cancer cases registered each year is on the rise, with one in three of us likely to contact the disease at some point in our lives. Cancer affects all of us in some way or another, whether it is through personal experience or through a family member or friend.
Each year we need to raise on average HK$30 million to finance our comprehensive cancer support services, provide free information and cancer booklets as well as man our CancerLink hotlines. We also play an active role in funding research, procuring medical equipment for hospitals, furthering training of medical professionals and publicizing cancer awareness campaigns throughout the community.
The availability of funds is always our greatest constraint, which is why every single dollar counts. Each donation you provide is a gift that makes a tangible difference to those touched by cancer.
There are many ways you can help us. Whether you are an individual donor, someone willing to volunteer your expertise or a company looking to partner in our fundraising events / public education campaigns, we are eager for your support.
So please help us to help others. Your generosity will determine what we can do today and how much we can achieve tomorrow to lessen the burden of cancer.
