Cancer is a deadly disease and we all know that. A recent report from WHO says about 300,000 kids (age 0-19) are diagnosed with cancer every year and unlike adults, there is no known cause.
I hear a lot of cancer stories in the recent years and I know some of them. That is one of the reasons I am running this year. I feel that it is important to stand for them, support them and also spread awareness - early diagnosis, treatment and care.
The other main reason is to contribute to Fondatioun Kriibskrank Kanner - an organization that accompanies children fighting cancer by improving physical and psychological condition, raising awareness and research. Your donations goes to two paediatric cancer research projects.
I hope that you will know more about cancer, spread the word and support the cause by donating generously.
Do not stop there - participate to raise awareness in your own communities.

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.
