CHOC’s core business is to support children with cancer and life-threatening blood disorders and their families.

Over 36 years CHOC’s holistic approach has developed to meet the practical and psychosocial needs of children and their families, to ensure children are diagnosed timeously, access paediatric oncologist care, and are supported throughout their treatment. Many children, particularly those from low-income households that live far from treatment centres, would not be able to adhere to the necessary but arduous treatment path. CHOC also promotes early detection and through our alliances plays a leading advocacy role.
