We are excited to announce the release of Canteen’s inaugural Impact Report, highlighting the positive outcomes we’ve achieved for young people and families facing cancer. Thanks to the generosity of our community, we can continue offering free, tailored services that help young people find life in the face of cancer.
Canteen operates across four strategic pillars – Treatment & Support, Research & Policy, Leadership, and Sustainability – ensuring comprehensive care for young people and their families. Our evidence-based programs and services address the mental, emotional, and physical wellbeing of young people, whether they’re dealing with their own diagnosis or that of a loved one. We also provide services for parents dealing with cancer in their family, as our studies show that when parents are supported through cancer, their children cope much better as well.
The Impact Report 23/24 reveals the transformative impact of our programs and services , including that 85% of young people report improvements in their wellbeing after engaging with Canteen. We're proud to share these findings as we remain committed to providing life -changing support. We invite you to explore the full report and join us in continuing to make a difference in 2024 and beyond.
