The month of 'September' is celebrated as 'Child Cancer Awareness Month' all over the world. ‘Child Cancer Awareness Month’ is an annual international health campaign by the leading children's cancer organization to raise awareness about childhood cancer and to raise funds for research into its causes, prevention, diagnosis, and treatment.
Childhood Cancer Awareness Month is observed
Childhood Cancer Awareness Month is observed to spread the message that childhood cancer can be completely cured if treated at the right time. In accordance with this, golden-coloured electric lighting is done on eye-catching buildings worldwide. Through this, children with child cancer and their families are given the message #GoGold to increase their morale and spread awareness about child cancer in society.
