Every year, around 250 children are affected by cancer in Luxembourg. At European level, 1 in 300 newborns will develop cancer before the age of 20, making it the 1st cause of death from illness of children over 1 year of age. As shocking as this may be, it is unfortunately not enough to justify a massive investment in pediatric cancer research.
That's why Fondatioun Kriibskrank Kanner (aide aux enfants atteints d'un cancer)mission is to contribute in helping the financing of these researches.
— Angie-walking for the kids!
LËTZ GO GOLD is a charity run organised by the Fondatioun Kriibskrank Kanner and takes place on the last Saturday morning of September. Each participant agrees to collect a minimum of € 200 (€ 100 for minors and students under 25 years of age) to fund paediatric cancer research: find new cures, improve existing ones, and learn more about the causes of paediatric cancers.
For the past 30 years, Fondatioun Kriibskrank Kanner has been accompanying families of children with cancer or a rare life-threatening disease on a daily basis. It’s multi-disciplinary team offers an individual accompaniment from the diagnosis to the remission of the child and offering administrative and financial services, psychological and social support and educational and recreational activities. In addition, the Foundation undertakes awareness campaigns and contributes to the improvement of the condition of the sick child. Finally, we actively support onco-pediatric research with one goal: to treat better and more.
Go Angie! Meg xx
