Fertility Preservation Support for Cancer Patients

For young adult cancer patients, cancer treatments such as chemotherapy and radiotherapy may damage their reproductive organs. Prior to any surgery or treatment they will need to decide on fertility preservation. We will support 50 young adult cancer patients, aged 18-35 years old who wish to have children in the future. The funding will cover the medication and drugs, and we also provide financial assistance for freezing of the eggs, embryo, ovarian tissue or sperm for up to two years.

Hong Kong Cancer Fund (HKCF) is Hong Kong's largest cancer support organisation, providing free information and professional support to anyone living with or affected by cancer. Our goal is to make life better for people touched by cancer.

Our Mission:
We ensure no one faces cancer alone.

Background
Established in 1987, our vision was to better the quality of cancer support in Hong Kong and ensure that no one faces cancer alone. We began by offering free information and support to anyone touched by cancer, which has slowly expanded over time to address all aspects of living with cancer.

Our work now encompasses public education, cancer research, home care, peer support, complementary therapies, funding of hospital equipment and much more in filling the gaps in cancer care and making life better for people touched by cancer.

The aims of HKCF are to help people adjust to living with cancer and to make life better for people touched by cancer, addressing all aspects of the cancer journey.

The objectives are to provide free services with professional carers who help clients manage the physical, emotional, psychological and social challenges brought about by a cancer diagnosis.

By offering a wide range of free support and rehabilitation programme, our goal is to empower individuals so that their cancer journey is as comforting, informed and stress-free as possible.

Hong Kong Cancer Fund's services are free! Receiving no money from the government, we rely solely on public generosity to sustain our free and on-going cancer support services.
