Because Our Children Are More Precious Than Gold
September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month – a time when we shine a light on what it means to live with and beyond childhood, adolescent and young adult cancer. Did you know that the gold ribbon is the international symbol of childhood cancer. We #GoGold because our children are more precious than gold.
This September, creches and schools have a golden opportunity to make a real difference. You can raise vital funds and help Childhood Cancer Ireland be there for families every step of the way.
