In the midst of the numerous challenges that we encounter in our lives, there are always moments when we have the opportunity to make a real difference. Supporting the work of the Swiss Paediatric Oncology Group (SPOG) is one such opportunity. Our work is only made possible thanks to the generosity and commitment of people like you.

Perhaps you are wondering why you should lend your support to SPOG in particular? Well, here are five convincing reasons explaining why your donation to SPOG is an investment in a better future for children and adolescents with cancer:

  1. Give a future to children and adolescents with cancer: Cancer takes no account of age or life circumstances – it can affect anyone. The research work of SPOG is crucial for improving the chances of recovery and the quality of life of children and adolescents confronted with this serious disease. Donations to SPOG enable us to continue researching and developing innovative treatments and therapies, so that children and adolescents suffering from cancer have a hopeful future.
  2. Make an impact with your donation: Every donation, large or small, has a direct impact on the lives of children and adolescents confronted with cancer. Thanks to generous contributions in the past, we have successfully implemented projects and driven forward innovations that make a crucial difference in the lives of our young patients. Every franc of your donation enables us to continue working on important research and developing new treatments for children and adolescents with cancer.
  3. A trustworthy organisation: As a recognised non-profit organisation, we guarantee that your donation will make a real difference. We are recognised by the State Secretariat for Education, Research and Innovation (SERI) as a research organisation of national importance and follow strict international rules and laws for research, giving you the confidence that your donation will benefit a reputable organisation dedicated to the well-being of children and adolescents with cancer.
  4. Long-term commitment: The fight against childhood cancer is a marathon, not a sprint. By making regular donations to SPOG, you will be supporting a long-term goal that requires continuous efforts and commitment. Your ongoing support will enable us to continue our life-changing work and finance long-term research projects with the potential to alter the future of many children and adolescents.
  5. Tax exemption: Your donation to SPOG is tax-deductible, which means that you are not only doing something good, but are also able to profit from it financially. An advantage for all concerned!

So if you’re looking for reasons to support SPOG, these are five strong arguments. Your generosity will help us continue our life-changing work for children and adolescents with cancer. Please help us continue the fight and donate today.
