One in three people in the Netherlands will face a cancer diagnosis in their lifetime. It's a reality that touches nearly everyone—chances are, you know someone affected. On World Cancer Day, this shared experience takes center stage.
Campaign Theme
This year's focus is 'You Have Cancer Together.' From patients and caregivers to those grieving a loved one, no one faces cancer alone. Reliable support networks across the country emphasize solidarity and community.
Transit Roses
Throughout the Netherlands, volunteers are distributing transit roses to lift spirits and show encouragement. If you missed one, you can easily purchase your own to pass on the positivity.
Walk-In Support Centers
World Cancer Day also highlights walk-in houses and psycho-oncological centers nationwide. These trusted facilities provide essential guidance, emotional support, and practical help for anyone navigating cancer or its aftermath.
