Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Month: collect online, shop or start a fundraiser
Dear Supporters,
For many people, Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Month in November is a time for remembrance and reflection, with World Pancreatic Cancer Day taking place on 20 November. For Support Casper, it is also an opportunity to consider what we have achieved together over the past decade: advancing promising new treatments and supporting patients, their families and everyone affected by the disease. We are moving in the right direction.
Pancreatic cancer is one of the most difficult diagnoses anyone can face. Beyond the medical concerns, it has a profound effect on everyday life and on the wellbeing of patients and their loved ones. At Support Casper, we believe that quality of life deserves as much attention as medical treatment. That means listening, offering practical support, creating moments of respite and being there for one another, even at the hardest times.
This month, we are placing patients' experiences at the centre of our work. Their stories, courage and resilience remind us why that work matters. Together, we can make a difference by offering hope and support and by helping people live as fully as possible alongside illness.
Thanks to your support, commitment and donations, Support Casper can continue this work. Together, we are striving for better treatments and a better quality of life for everyone affected by pancreatic cancer.
— Professor Casper van Eijck
