United in the fight 
against childhood cancer

In Switzerland, around 350 children and adolescents are diagnosed with cancer every year, many of them infants and children under the age of four. Even though 4 out of 5 children can now be cured, statistically that still means that one child dies almost every week. Together with its member organisations, Childhood Cancer Switzerland is dedicated to improving the situation of children with cancer, their families and long-term survivors throughout Switzerland.

Our new information platform is online!

Our new information platform about living with and after childhood cancer (German version) is online. It offers support and guidance on important issues, highlights valuable networking opportunities, and inspires courage in difficult times – before, during and after treatment. Find out more here.

Fields of action

In the fight against childhood cancer, we are active throughout Switzerland in the following areas with our own projects, awareness-raising campaigns, political commitment on behalf of those affected, a national contact point for long-term survivors and financial support for our member organisations.
