MORE ABOUT TERRY FOX :

At the age of 10, Terry Fox was diagnosed with cancer. The disease’s progression led to the amputation of one of his legs above the knee. Fox soon learnt to run using an artificial leg. Later he decided to run across Canada to raise money for cancer research. His run, the Marathon of Hope, began in St. John’s, Newfoundland, on April 12, 1980. Fox covered up to 48 km per day. Fox passed the halfway point in eastern Ontario, but on September 1, 1980, chest pains forced him to stop just outside the city of Thunder Bay. It was soon discovered that the cancer had spread to his lungs, and he was unable to continue. By that time, Fox had covered 5374 km and had raised over 800 USD. 

Despite undergoing numerous treatments, Fox died on June 28, 1981. Before his death, the government had made him the youngest ever Companion of the Order of Canada, and he was twice named Canadian of the Year. Terry Fox Runs, which are organized by the Terry Fox Foundation, are held annually in cities throughout Canada and other countries.

THE INITIATIVE :

We, the students of CIS, are coming together to support cancer research in India through the Terry Fox Marathon and carry forward Terry Fox's vision. We have partnered with Tata Memorial Hospital (TMH), Mumbai for this. 



Tata Memorial Hospital (TMH) provides high-quality cancer care to patients from across the country regardless of socioeconomic status and their ability to pay; more than 60% of patients are treated free of cost. Every year 1.5L new patients visit the hospital and 7.5L patients come for follow-ups. Tata Memorial Hospital has been conducting clinical trials to support clinical research since 1997. Over the years, the focus has been on 3 major goals: funding and infrastructure support for clinical trials, propagation of evidence-based medicine in cancer management, and capacity building for research. 

Tata Memorial Centre plays a significant part in the global landscape of cancer research and treatment with research activities spanning a broad range of clinical trials across diverse subjects like epidemiology, cancer genetics, immunotherapy, and much more.

ABOUT ME AND THIS CAMPAIGN


My name is Rehaan. I am 16-years-old and a Grade 11 student at the Canadian Intl School, Bengaluru.

Every year our school conducts the Terry Fox Marathon. I was very surprised to learn more about Terry Fox who ran so many kilometres even though he was diagnosed with cancer and had an amputated leg to spread awareness and to raise funds for cancer research.

This time I have also decided to be a part of this cause and help cancer research in India along with my classmates. Tata Memorial Hospital (TMH) does great work in this field and with more funds they will be able to achieve much more in research. This will help treat rare cancer cases and save lives within India and also globally.

Every small contribution makes a difference, please support my campaign and let us save lives together.

ABOUT THE TATA MEMORIAL HOSPITAL (TMH) :


The Tata Memorial Hospital is situated in Parel, Mumbai. Also popularly known as TMH, it is a specialist cancer treatment and research centre, closely associated with the Advanced Centre for Treatment, Research and Education in Cancer (ACTREC). The centre is the national comprehensive cancer centre for the prevention, treatment, education, and research of cancer and is recognised as one of the leading cancer centres in this part of the world. It is an autonomous body funded and controlled by the Department of Atomic Energy, Government of India which also oversees the administration of the institute since 1962.

The Tata Memorial Centre, a grant-in-aid organization under the Department of Atomic Energy (DAE) is the oldest and largest cancer centre in the country. It provides high-quality cancer care to patients from across the country regardless of socioeconomic status and their ability to pay; more than 60% of patients are treated free of cost. Compassionate patient care remains the major focus of Tata Memorial Hospital, with eleven Disease Management Groups (or multidisciplinary teams) breaking departmental silos and providing optimal care for every patient. This emphasis on the team approach leverages the extensive experience and expertise of various specialists, thereby providing patients with evidence-based, yet individualized care, tailored not just to cancer but also to the patient’s unique physical, emotional, and psychosocial needs. The centre runs an active Bone Marrow Transplant (BMT) program with a 6-bedded BMT uni performing 80 to 90 transplants every year. Twenty-five percent of all transplants are funded by the institute so that patients who otherwise would not have been transplanted undergo this expensive but lifesaving treatment.
