ABOUT VIVA

VIVA Foundation for Children with Cancer is a Singapore-based charity which focuses on saving lives of children with cancer through research, medical care and education.

Cancer is a leading cause of death by illness among children today. There are different types of cancers which afflict children, from leukaemias and brain tumours to sarcomas and others.

VIVA Foundation for Children with Cancer focuses on life-saving leading-edge research, medical care and education. We are racing against time to develop better treatments, faster cures and to make newer discoveries.

We support childhood cancer patients and survivors in getting back on their feet and contributing back to society as healthy and equipped individuals, through 5 areas :

Movement -Empowering Health Through Activity 

Emotional Wellness – Building Resilience for the Future

Our St Jude-VIVA Survivorship webinar series aims to bring together international experts to educate healthcare professionals on the best practices and standard of care on childhood cancer survivorship.  

The word “VIVA” is an acclamation for “long live!” and VIVA works to rewrite the future of children with cancer, as every child deserves to live and no child should die in the dawn of their lives.
VIVA works very closely with the world-renowned St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital (Tennessee, USA) with the ambitious aim of translating the high cure rates achieved by St Jude into Singapore and the wider Asia region.
