Dear friends, today marks International Childhood Cancer Day which aims to raise awareness of children suffering from malignant diseases and to express support to the children and adolescents and their families.
The goal of this day is to increase acceptance and deepen understanding of the problems and challenges faced by the sick children and those who have managed to beat one of these dangerous diseases.
Marking this day began thanks to the international organization Childhood Cancer International (CCI), on whose website you can find more information about the organization, what they do and about International Childhood Cancer Day: http://icccpo.org/index.cfm.
How can you help? In addition to other ways, you can join the Registry of voluntary hematopoietic stem cell donors if you are in good health and between the ages of 18 and 40, and that way you can increase the chances of healing those who are suffering.
We convey to all the brave children suffering from malignant diseases, as well as all the others who are struggling with some form of these diseases, our most sincere and heartfelt wishes of a speedy and successful recovery!
