Ik ben Steffi, tanti van Liv.
Ongeveer 9 maanden geleden werd er bij Liv een hooggradige glioom vastgesteld. Haar hersentumor kan helaas niet operatief verwijderd worden.
De voorbije maanden heeft ze zware bestralingen gehad en de chemokuur is nog steeds lopende. Het doel hiervan is om te proberen de groei van de tumor af te remmen.
De ontwikkeling van medicijnen om zeldzame ziektes te behandelen is voor de farmaceutische wereld geen prioriteit. Daarom is het van belang om een organisatie zoals Kick Cancer te ondersteunen en op deze manier de nodige onderzoeken te stimuleren.
Op zondag 24 september nemen wij samen met Liv en ons team “💜 4 LIV” deel aan de “RUN TO KICK” in Brussel.
Het ingezamelde geld gaat integraal naar innovatieve FIGHT KIDS CANCER onderzoeken.
Een grote dankjewel voor jullie donaties.

We have a mission. A beautiful mission. We want to cure every child with cancer.
Find new treatments, improve existing ones, and kick children’s cancer to send it far, far away forever and may it never come back! We therefore financially support scientific research, and bring together the drive, inspiration and knowledge of everyone involved. From researchers, doctors and parents to politicians and pharmaceutical companies. Only a joint effort can ensure that children with cancer are cured and better cured.
Thanks to our generous sponsors, 100% of the funds raised by you will finance innovative research projects selected thanks to the European FIGHT KIDS CANCER initiative.
FIGHT KIDS CANCER is a European call for projects that we launched together with Imaginefor Margo (France) and Fondatioun Kriibskrank Kanner (Luxembourg).
Our second FIGHT KIDS CANCER call for projects lead to the selection, by independent international experts, of 5 new innovative research projects of European scope for a total amount of 3,45 million euros of which KickCancer will finance 800 000 €. Through these projects, we hope to foster improvements in the knowledge and treatment of the following diseases: B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (clinical trial), ewing's sarcomas (clinical trial), medulloblastomas (translational project), neuroblastomas (2 translational projects).
There is ONE EXTRA project we would love to tell you more about… but we need to raise more funds than initially planned. Are you in to help us reach one million euros to fund this mystery project?
