More Information

Cancer ranks as the second leading cause of death worldwide. In Bermuda, over 300 people face a cancer diagnosis annually, with 80+ lives lost to this disease each year.

But together, let's rewrite this narrative and Close The Gap.

This World Cancer Day, we recognise that our commitment to action holds the key to substantial progress in curbing the island-wide impact of cancer. On Sunday, February 4, your actions, whether big or small, will initiate lasting and positive change. Progress is within reach, and your dedication is crucial to creating a cancer-free world. Join us this World Cancer Day in bridging the care gap!

At Bermuda Cancer and Health Centre, we firmly believe that collective action today can diminish the number of cancer diagnoses. Your support is integral.

Help us achieve our goal of raising $10,000 through World Cancer Day events. Your donations will fuel our cancer prevention programs and raise awareness that 30-50% of all cancers are preventable, emphasising the choices you can make to reduce your cancer risk!
