About
Founded in 2023, Fundación OC Contra el Cáncer Infantil is a grant-making foundation based in Spain working on medical research, health, children & youth.
Fundación OC Contra el Cáncer Infantil is a Spanish foundation dedicated to funding research into childhood cancer, with the aim of curing all childhood cancers and reducing their long-term side effects. It was established in spring 2023, after the death of a nine-year-old child, Oscar, from medulloblastoma, by his parents. The foundation funds innovative research projects, including early relapse detection, clinical trials, and personalised medicine, and collaborates with researchers and medical centres. It also supports families affected by childhood cancer, runs fundraising campaigns and races, and invites individuals and companies to donate, fundraise or become members.
