World Cancer Day 2018
World Cancer Day is an opportunity to unite the world’s population in the fight against cancer.
It aims to save millions of preventable deaths each year by raising awareness and education about the disease, pressing governments and individuals across the world to take action.
The goal is to ensure fewer people develop cancer, more people are successfully treated and that there is a better quality of life for people during treatment and beyond.
Currently, 8.8 million people die from cancer worldwide every year, out of which, 4 million people die prematurely (aged 30 to 69 years).
Get involved in the fight against cancer by:
- Raising awareness on social media
- Organising a fundraiser
- Volunteering
- Making a donation
