My story

 
Team Daisy Kenya is preparing for the Toronto Marathon on Sunday 18th October, to support Daisy's Eye Cancer Fund.  Our team includes doctors who care for children with retinoblastoma, researchers, members of our Executive Board and world champion athletes from Kenya.  Retinoblastoma is a highly curable eye cancer affecting babies and young children that kills over 7,000 children each year due to late diagnosis and poor access to care in developing countries.  Most of these deaths can be prevented by increasing awareness and rapid access to existing medical care. Through Rati's Challenge, Daisy's Eye Cancer Fund is working with a dedicated team in Kenya to develop a national retinoblastoma strategy that will achieve timely and accurate diagnosis and treatment; family support and collaborative care; improved survival and quality of life; and sustainable change for Kenya’s children.  This strategy will become a model for use in resource limited settings around the world.  Please see the photo slide show and video for more information.  Please sponsor our team and help turn our small steps into great strides towards achieving the DECF vision: the end of avoidable death, blindness and unnecessary suffering from childhood eye cancer Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - we raise more, while saving time and cutting costs for the charity.  So please dig deep and donate now.
