Al Jalila Foundation allocates Dh19.25 million to support cancer treatment for 297 children since 2015

Dubai's Al Jalila Foundation has committed Dh19.25 million to support cancer treatment for 297 children since 2015, according to a recent announcement. This allocation underscores the Foundation's ongoing dedication to ensuring young patients have access to critical care. The news arrives during Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, a time designated each September to raise awareness about the condition.

Al Jalila Foundation plays a crucial role in advancing health for humanity, as part of Dubai Health's vision. The Foundation's patient support programs facilitate children's access to necessary treatment and ongoing care. In 2026, the Foundation initiated The Cancer Fund to allocate dedicated finances specifically for children's cancer treatment, aiming to maintain consistent care.

At Dubai Health's Al Jalila Children's Hospital, these young patients are provided with comprehensive care by multi-disciplinary teams throughout their entire treatment process.
