Every year over half a million children develop cancer, leukemia or are born with
life-threatening hereditary blood disorders such as thalassemia or sickle cell
disease. As a group, they represent the most common Non-Communicable Diseases (NCD) in many emerging countries. Most are curable but only a minority of children have access to appropriate care. A lack of trained personnel and/or financial resources are these children's major barriers to a healthy life. At Cure2Children our goal is to ensure that local medical centers are available to offer an affordable and reliable cure to children in their community suffering from cancer and other blood disorders. We also contribute the development of worldwide evidence-based diagnostic and management standards that improve a cure for all children with cancer and blood disorders regardless of geographical, financial, and cultural barriers.
