Thanks to the remarkable support of Albertans, we’ve not only met but exceeded our $250 million goal—raising an astounding $298 million!

Together, we’re advancing cancer treatment, patient care, and world-class research as the Arthur J.E. Child Comprehensive Cancer Centre welcomes its first patients.

The impact of this support is clear:

  • Establishing Calgary as a global leader in immunotherapy and precision oncology for more effective, personalized treatments
  • Expanding access to clinical trials and attracting world-renowned researchers to Alberta
  • Providing Albertans with cutting-edge treatment technology, like MR Linacs for exceptionally precise radiation therapy

But, while the OWN.CANCER campaign has reached its goal, the work is far from over.

We invite you to continue owning cancer by supporting the ongoing efforts of the Alberta Cancer Foundation and the Charbonneau Cancer Institute.
