Every week, three Kiwi families are told the heartbreaking news that their child has cancer.  For over 40 years, Child Cancer Foundation has stood by our kaupapa of ensuring that every family going through childhood cancer in New Zealand has someone there to support them at a time when they need it most. We're dedicated to supporting them every step of the way - helping them overcome challenges and maintain control of their lives.

While medical staff do an incredible job treating the child, families often need practical emotional and financial support beyond what doctors and nurses are able to give. That’s why we ensure that each newly diagnosed family has a dedicated Family Support Coordinator who walks the path of childhood cancer with the family, helping to lighten their load wherever they can. When things seem impossible, their support can make all the difference.
