What Does It Take To Fight Cancer When The Nearest Cancer Hospital Is 8-Hours Away?
Well, for cancer patients in Nepal’s Province 2, fighting cancer meant traveling 8-hours by bus to the nearest cancer hospital where most providers do not speak your language. For them, it meant leaving your loved ones behind to fight cancer alone, in a place where you cannot speak the local language, and you do not understand the culture, and you do not know what is going on with your health.
If you share our values and would like to join our efforts, here are some ways you can contribute:
Donate and Fund Raise
Donating and fundraising to support our mission is an excellent way to help us realize our vision of bringing much-needed cancer care to every community worldwide, one cancer hospital at a time.
Join our Education Academy
If you are an oncology clinician interested in contributing to our continuing education program, please consider joining our education committee. The committee is tasked with planning and evaluating our educational activities.
Join our Journal Editorial Board
The International Journal of Cancer Care & Delivery (IJCCD) is an open-source, peer-reviewed journal that publishes scientific articles focused on innovative solutions to improve access to cancer care.
Contribute to the Cancer News
The Cancer News is an authoritative resource for news about cancer. The site features expert opinions on key research, updates about FDA approvals, information about cancer disparities, and a patient corner, among other updates. The Cancer News is currently accepting inquiries from oncology clinicians, researchers, healthcare communication professionals, and journalists to join its team of contributors and editors.
Volunteer for our Global Oncology Program
Binaytara Foundation’s Global Oncology program focuses on developing programs, services, human resources, and infrastructure in communities where cancer care is minimal or non-existent. Since 2007, we have successfully administered and supported several highly impactful global oncology programs in Nepal and India, including the establishment of the country’s first bone marrow transplant center in Nepal, and capacity building for a state-wide hospice and palliative care program in all 51-districts of Madhya Pradesh, India.
Hear what media legend the late Larry King had to say about our Annual Cancer Health Disparities Summit and his call to support the Binaytara Foundation Cancer Center in Nepal.
Larry King was scheduled to moderate the debate titled – “Single Payer Versus Multi-payer Healthcare System in America” at Binaytara Foundation’s 2019 Summit on Cancer Health Disparities.
However, due to his ongoing health issues, Mr. King had been hospitalized just days before the Summit and was unable come. He sent this video message to encourage the participants of the summit and his fans to support the Binaytara Foundation and help to build the cancer hospital in Nepal.
