At Dubai Health, we stand for a future where no child’s life is defined by cancer. Driving this mission forward, Al Jalila Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Dubai Health, empowers young patients and their families by enabling access to quality care to support better health.
According to the World Health Organization, around 400,000 children and adolescents (from newborns to 19 years old) are diagnosed with cancer each year worldwide. For many families, the biggest challenges are limited access to care and the discontinuation of treatment. Hearing the words “your child has cancer” is one of the most devastating moments any family can face. It is a heartbreaking reality that no child should have to endure, and no family should have to face alone.
Every September, in recognition of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, we invite you to stand with us by supporting the “Be the Superhero” fundraising campaign. Through your generosity, we can continue supporting life-saving treatment, and offering comfort to families as they navigate one of the most profound journeys of their lives.
Behind every success story is the extraordinary generosity of our donors and the tireless efforts of our dedicated team. Together, we have already brought stories of hope to life. Many children have received life-saving treatment; families have drawn strength and courage; and young warriors now dream of brighter tomorrows. These stories of healing and resilience stand as living proof that every contribution, no matter how big or small, holds the power to transform a life.
With your support, we can extend hope to more families and create even more stories of renewed possibility.
Together, we can be the superheroes these brave young warriors need.
Support cancer patient treatment.
