One km for each child fighting cancer somewhere in the world each year.
How can you help? Each one of us knows about at least one person in our friend, family, alumni, office and extended circles who are struggling with Cancer and fighting for survival - physically, mentally and monetarily.
Our cause, is Children With Cancer, (some as young as 3 to 6 months all the way to 18 years) who are victims of the dreaded disease. A majority of them coming from underprivileged families. In fact, of the 4,00,000 children worldwide diagnosed yearly, 80,000 are from India.
Your donation goes towards medical treatment, blood work, nutrition, counseling, education of a child with cancer. Together we can bring light into dark and shine the way for more children with cancer to #surviveandthrive.
