From the flap of a butterfly’s wings come powerful winds of change.
Since 1980, the butterfly has served as the Children’s Cancer Research Fund symbol of hope. It represents the transformation a child experiences in the course of cancer treatment – emerging from the cocoon of illness and isolation ready to spread their wings and fly out into the world.
The symbol also represents our belief at Children’s Cancer Research Fund that the Butterfly Effect is one of the most powerful forces in the battle against childhood cancer. From small beginnings, the organization has made a tremendous impact – whether it’s furthering groundbreaking research , training the pediatric cancer doctors and researchers of the future, or treating children from across the globe with new therapies in their fight against cancer. The Butterfly Effect works through every life touched by Children’s Cancer Research Fund. Creating new hope every day, it will lead us toward a world free of childhood cancer.
