The support given by this project consists of a mix of educational, sportive and other challenges for these children to regain confidence for themselves and their families.
At this moment, around 75% of the children and adolescents affected by cancer are being cured. A full recovery means however not only a healthy body but also recovery of a complete physical, mental and social state and a regained posession of the physical and intellectual capacities.
This foundation was founded in 1994 by Christine Janin. In the previous years, thousands of children have challenged their own ‘Everest’.
