In the UK around 1,500 children each year are diagnosed with a childhood cancer.
CAN YOU HELP GREENE & CO HELP FIGHT FOR LIFE?
The Fight for Life children's cancer charity is committed to raising substantial funds each year to maintain the Radiotherapy Unit treating children at the new University College Hospital in Marylebone Road, London.
Fight for Life is staffed solely by volunteers and ALL contributions go directly to the fund.
This unit services all of Great Ormond Street's radiotherapy needs and is the primary paediatric radiotherapy unit in the South-East of England. Since FFL began in 1997 they have purchased their very own Radiotherapy Linear Accelerator machine, a PET/CT Scanner and maintain a wonderful Children's Play Area which is regularly updated with toys and equipment. There is no other similar facility anywhere in the world, making the treatment much less scary for the children.

"The bottom line is that with your help and the expertise of all our remarkable staff, we now expect to cure (yes cure!) over 70% of all children presenting with a newly diagnosed cancer." Prof Jeffrey S Tobias, MD FRCP FRCPL, Consultant in Radiotherapy & Oncology, Professor of Cancer Medicine.
We love our community. Let's fight for them!
(Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It's also the most efficient way to sponsor this charity: Fight for Life (a segment of UCLH) gets your money faster and, if you're a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement are added to your donation.)
Greene & Co. pledge to donate £5,000 through matching donations in 2009.
