END CHILDHOOD CANCER
To advance childhood cancer treatment in Cameroon through financial support, education, and awareness.
Our MISSION
237 CCF provides financial and educational support to children with cancer and their families. The main objective behind this initiative is to expand access to cancer treatment for all children in Cameroon and increase survival rates. We won’t rest until no child dies from cancer due to lack of resources.
WELCOME
237 CCF was founded in 2022 by a breast cancer patient. Though the side effects of chemotherapy were overwhelming, she gained perspective. She was grateful for all the resources available to her, but heartbroken by the plight of the most vulnerable - children battling cancer in Cameroon who may not have the necessary resources to improve their chances of survival or make coping with cancer a little easier.
We are thankful to our partners, donors, volunteers and staff both in Cameroon and the United States for their unwavering support.

How we started
When I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2019, my world fell apart. As someone who had always prioritized health and wellness, the news came as a complete shock. My two young children were all I could think about.
​
Thankfully, my medical team was nothing short of a blessing—from my very first meeting with the surgeon to the regular appointments with my oncology team, I was surrounded by compassion and expertise. Cancer challenged every part of me—mind, body, and soul—but it never broke my spirit. I leaned on my faith in God and the overwhelming love and support from those around me.
​
Each chemotherapy session brought tears to my eyes—tears of deep gratitude for the exceptional care I was receiving, and tears of sorrow for others, especially those in Cameroon, who might be facing the same battle without access to such care.
​
It was in those moments, sitting through chemo, that a vision was born in my heart—to support children fighting cancer in Cameroon and bring hope where it’s needed most.

​God has been good to me. To everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven. I am grateful to my family and friends for being my strength during those challenging times. Never underestimate the power of faith and love.
Together, let’s give children with cancer a chance!
