Your birthday could positively impact the lives of children and families affected by childhood cancer. Birthday fundraisers on Facebook or JustGiving are a wonderful opportunity to raise funds and awareness for a cause you care deeply about.

Support from individuals like you is vital in allowing us to continue providing our services to the best of our abilities and give our families the care they need and deserve. Your fundraiser can contribute towards the emotional, practical and financial aid we offer to families impacted by childhood cancer. What better birthday present than knowing you are bringing hope and smiles to the faces of children and families when they need it most?

To set up your fundraiser, visit Candlelighters (givp.nl).

Thank you, from us and our families, for your amazing support.
