Christophers Smile
(UK, 1129906) Browse events
YTD Raised: £3,024.62
(UK, 1129906) Christopher’s Smile was set up in October 2008 by Karen and Kevin Capel following the tragic death of their only son Christopher from medulloblastoma, an aggressive childhood brain tumour. Supporting UK research centres such as the Institute of Cancer Research, Christopher ’s Smile aims to raise money to fund development of new drugs to treat medulloblastoma and other childhood cancers without devastating side effects. These drugs will provide an effective cure for all and save the lives of the 25% of children who currently do not survive their disease. We firmly believe that charities should be voluntary organisations and not giant corporations. We pay no wages, we control our costs and when expenditure is unavoidable this is covered by either specific grants or paid for by the Trustees. Our belief is that every penny of a donation should be used for the cause for which it was given. We ensure that donors are kept fully informed of how their donations have been spent and the benefits delivered. "Our vision is for every child diagnosed with childhood cancer to not only survive, but to reach adulthood enjoying a good quality of life."
