Our goal
Raise funds to fight cancer
For the past ten years, Rock Against Cancer has been raising funds that are fully donated to two Luxembourg charities fighting against cancer: the Fondation Cancer and the Fondatioun Kriibskrank Kanner.
We have achieved to raise more than 208,000 EUR, allowing the creation of infrastructure especially for sick children. Since its creation, the full event has been entirely organised by volunteers, mostly from Swiss Life.
Fondation Cancer
info – help – research
The Cancer Foundation works tirelessly in the fight against cancer. In addition to providing information on prevention, screening and living with cancer, the Cancer Foundation has pursued four missions:
- Decrease the number of cancer cases
- Reduce cancer deaths
- Help those affected by increasing their quality of life
- Support research
To do this, it mobilises all its skills to support patients, to raise awareness among the population through prevention campaigns but also to finance research, essential to the development of new therapies, and one day a universal remedy.
