How You Can Help

Join the many businesses, community groups, schools and service clubs who help us by holding a special “third-party” fundraising event. Fundraising with friends, family or coworkers is a great way to support the work of the BC Cancer Foundation.
World-class Care, Closer to Home
The opening of the BC Cancer Agency’s Abbotsford Centre will enhance the agency’s ability to pursue innovation and research to improve patient outcomes in the province. The Abbotsford Centre will join regional centres in Vancouver, Surrey, Kelowna and Victoria to provide the best cancer care possible for the population of B.C. with the most state-of-the-art equipment available today, and access to clinical trials and research advances.
The BC Cancer Agency’s Abbotsford Centre will be linked to a province-wide system of cancer control, which includes a registry to track cancer outcomes and effectiveness of treatments, and provincial tumor groups which establish treatment protocols based on the best evidence available.
The BC Cancer Agency provides a comprehensive cancer control system for the province of BC, which includes prevention, screening, assessment and diagnosis, treatment, supportive and palliative care and research.
