DENNIS BERGKAMP TESTIMONIAL MATCH V AJAX JULY 22, 2006
KIKA
"Doesn't this little champion more
than deserve a gold medal for his
fight against cancer?"
Inge de Bruijn, Olympic Swimming
Gold Medalist and KiKa ambassador
Less pain, less struggle. More cure,
more quality for children with
cancer.
KiKa (Kinderen Kankervrij) is
soliciting extra funds for special
research that could help children to
beat cancer faster. Extra, because
the available funding is not
adequate for the innovative
research needed.
Curing
In the last 40 years, great strides
have been made in the fight against
cancer. Many cancer patients can be
cured by chemotherapy, drugs,
surgery and radiation treatment. In
the early years the cure rate was
only 25%; now we are up to 70%.
But we can't go much higher than
that with existing treatments. And
we very much want to get closer to
100%. Because 75% may seem
high, but that still means that one
out of four children with cancer will
die from it.
Funding needed for innovative
research
One of the most important studies
that we want to fund concerns the
damage that chemotherapy still
causes to healthy cells surrounding
cancer cells. In some cases
chemotherapy has immediate and
nasty side effects, while in others
these side effects are revealed only
years later. Heart and kidney
problems are just two examples. So
we need to develop a therapy that
destroys only cancer cells and
spares healthy cells.
Donate
Help children with cancer reach
the cure in record time.
With your contribution you give
them the chance to experience less
pain and struggle, and more curing
and quality.
