At The Princess Margaret We Give Cancer Patients Everywhere Brighter Tomorrows.
We understand that three of the scariest words are “you have cancer”, which is why for more than 70 years, we’ve been illuminating new paths forward in cancer diagnostics, research, and exceptional care.
A world-leading beacon of hope against the encroaching shadow of cancer with discoveries like stem cells, making bone marrow transplants possible, and the pioneering of immunotherapy through our discovery of the T-cell receptor, the fire of determination has always burned bright in the hearts of The Princess Margaret.
Yet, despite our progress, cancer remains a daunting challenge. By 2050, new cancer cases are projected to increase by 77%, with Millennials experiencing the fastest cancer rates. This is why we are reigniting our commitment to transform cancer outcomes, and create a world free from the fear of cancer.
Our medical and scientific teams share an unwavering dedication to Carry The Fire for cancer patients who depend on our world-leading work to bring light to the darkness of cancer. But we cannot achieve this alone.
We need your help to fuel this work. Because when we all Carry The Fire, we WILL improve cancer outcomes for every generation. Together, let’s go to the ends of the earth to give cancer patients everywhere brighter tomorrows.
CARRY THE FIRE for a world free from the fear of cancer.
Imagine yourself sitting on the porch of a cottage looking out a beautiful Canadian sunrise that paints the sky orange, pink and purple. There is no noise aside from the sounds of loons, a gentle breeze and waves splashing on the shore.
At The Princess Margaret, we believe there is nothing more hopeful than a sunrise, the dawning of a new day. Since opening its doors in 1958, the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre has been a global leader in cancer diagnostic, research and treatment – a beacon of light and hope for cancer patients and their loved ones.
