Children’s Cancer Foundation   

兒童癌病基金

CCF established in 1989, through the best possible holistic care approach, it aims to improve the quality of life for young cancer patients and their families in caring for their physical, psychological and social well-being.  We also help doctors to improve  survival rate of children with cancer through sponsoring expensive drugs, diagnostic tests and research.  

Right from when children are diagnosed with cancer,

• Child Life Service – to enhance the psychosocial functioning of the patients and their families, helping patients to understand their illnesses and treatment plans and preparing them for the treatment procedures. 
• Family Counselling – helping the patients and their families to cope with the changes and difficulties brought about by the illnesses through counselling and other supporting services.
• Financial Assistance – we sponsor prosthetic limbs, travelling expenses, emergency funds and also provide half-way homes and rehabilitation bus service to families in need.  
• Community Service – we help survivors to ease back into the community through transitional education and potential development programmes, helping them to cultivate interests and explore their strengths and potentials. 
• Children’s Palliative Care Foundation – our team of nurse specialists and social workers helps young and adolescent patients with life-limiting and life-threatening illness relieving their distressing physical symptoms, providing 24/7 end-of-life care and also providing bereavement care for parents after the passing of the child.

Upcoming Event: Hats On Day
This year marks the 35th anniversary of CCF Various events will be organised on this special occasion to celebrate the achievement of CCF over the past 35 years and raise public awareness to support our young patients suffering from cancer or facing life-threatening conditions, as well as their families.
