Alejandra Mendez, President of Childhood Cancer International, shared on LinkedIn:
“Another dream come true in Jimma, Ethiopia!
Today, we had the honor and joy of celebrating the foundation stone-laying ceremony for a new home for children with cancer and their families from TAPPCO organization.
Another home made possible through Childhood Cancer International’s Home Away From Home Program, with the generous support of Sanofi Foundation.
Another dream turned into reality, bringing hope and support to children and families who need it most. It was a deeply emotional moment, filled with gratitude, hope, and a powerful reminder of what we can achieve when we work together.
This house is much more than a building. It is a place of hope, dignity, comfort, and care.
Thank you to everyone who helped turn this dream into reality. To all the organizations, partners and supporters who believed in this vision and made it possible. Special thanks to Isabelle Villadary, Eric Bouffet.
Today, we celebrate not only the opening of a house, but also the power of collaboration and our shared commitment to ensuring that no child is left behind.
Because having treatment available is not enough. We must ensure that every child can actually access it. Every child, everywhere.”
