How We Work

With cancer numbers rising and health-systems in South Africa failing, we are making a case for a National Cancer Institute that would hold the government to account.

Managed by the EXCO

The Cancer Alliance is managed by the Executive Committee (EXCO), which is elected by and drawn from our member organizations. All EXCO members contribute their time and effort on a voluntary basis, and are supported by their own organizations where necessary. Cancer Alliance Members pay an annual membership fee which is used for minimal day to day expenses.

HOW WE WORK

Our Objectives

The objectives of the Cancer Alliance are expressed in our 2024 Strategic Plan as:  Focus on equitable access to cancer care and treatment:

  • Build the capacity of cancer advocates
  • Focus on transparency, openness and respect
  • Increase cancer advocates at community level to promote sustainable prevention and care
  • Increase funding and sustainability through fund development and grant funding
  • Build the brand of the Cancer Alliance as ONE VOICE

DONATE TO OUR CAUSE

Funding
& Support

The Cancer Alliance does not compete with its own members in fund raising. Our projects are funded by grants and donations made by organizations, usually to support a specific objective of the Cancer Alliance.
