Our Mission

To provide the opportunity for compassionate and quality cancer care to children in developing nations

No child should be denied the opportunity for cure of their cancer if we have it within our capacity to cure their cancer simply by providing the resources and leveraging our alliances and our collective voice.

Eight out of 10 children diagnosed with cancer in western and developed nations are cured of the cancer. In developing nations, 1-2 children out of 10 are cured of their cancer. The healers around the world can create a chain of hope for these children and their families by providing the support needed to invest in a life-giving opportunity for medical change.

A child cancer survivor himself, Eugene Gasana, Jr. was the inspiration behind our creation of the Wish4Life Foundation. Dedicated to replicating his survival for children around the world, we seek to change the way cancer care is delivered for children. We seek to provide high-quality medical care to all children without distinction; attempting to equalize the cure rate around the world.

The success of our first pediatric cancer center in Ghana will be the catalyst for replicating this gift on four additional continents – 5 cancer centers in 5 continents. All hearts inspired to provide excellence in childhood health care to all, are needed to invest in our state-of-the-art children cancer research center. Your gift toward our first cancer center will be a gift that will continue to give, and will be an investment that will change the lives of children and communities for generations. Touch the future when you support our children.
