EPCALM Joins Blood Cancer Alliance PH In Observing Blood Cancer Awareness Month

In solidarity with patient groups that provide programs and allied services to blood cancer patients in the Philippines, the EPCALM Foundation joins member-organizations of the Blood Cancer Alliance of the Philippines in commemorating Blood Cancer Awareness Month this September 2024.


EPCALM is a Founding Member of the Alliance.



The advocacy calendar highlights EPCALM-led advocacy events, such as the signing of a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) on 19 September between the Foundation and the Healthway Cancer Care Hospital - toward promoting universal access to healthcare; the fundraising concert of the Apo Hiking Society and Leah Navarro on 24 September; and the Family Huddle for serviced patients and their families on 28 September.


Other activities include a virtual gathering of lymphoma patients, survivors and their loved ones; a voluntary Blood Drive; the launch of MyeSPEAK, a support group for myeloma patients; a virtual forum for young adult blood cancer patients and survivors sharing their personal stories; a mutational analysis for CML patients toward helping doctors better manage the disease; and a blood cancer patient forum, among others.


For the details of all lined-up activities of Alliance members, please refer to the posters.
