"They're like an invisible blanket that you don't know that's there until you need it. And then they come around you and they support you and help you with stuff you don't even realise you need support with. Charities like this are fundamental to getting through it, living with it and coming out the other side."
Why choose Childhood Cancer Ireland?
Childhood Cancer Ireland is a national charity solely dedicated to supporting children and young people with cancer, survivors, and their families.
Every year, an average of 374 children and young people are diagnosed with cancer in Ireland. As a parent and survivor-led charity, we understand how this diagnosis pulls the rug from under the entire family without warning. When that happens, Childhood Cancer Ireland is there, giving families the strength they need every step of the way.
Our work reaches families at every stage of their cancer journey, from diagnosis and treatment to recovery, life after cancer and bereavement. By partnering with us, your organisation shows visible support for families facing one of the most difficult challenges imaginable.
We do this work without Government funding, relying on the generosity of public donations and corporate partnerships. Your support directly helps families impacted by childhood cancer all over Ireland.
