International Childhood Cancer Day (ICCD) is celebrated on the 15th of February each year.
The primary message of the 2023 ICCD is:
Better Survival is achievable #ThroughTheirHands.
At Ain Society Young Heroes Cancer Care, we support children who are diagnosed with cancer through their journey with cancer.
Here, we present to you paintings done by those affected with childhood cancer.
