About SCCS

Sarawak Children’s Cancer Society (SCCS) is a non-profit voluntary organization formed on 26th September, 1999 by a group of parents of children with cancer to discover ways in which they could help each other and their children.

Formally registered in 26th November, 2001, SCCS expanded her role in provision of financial and emotional support, accommodation for outstation families and treatment facilities based on the incidence of new cases of childhood cancer which reaches 60 to 70 patients a year.

As more children began to survive with improved treatment techniques, public education about childhood cancer, quality of life and future prospects for children with cancer were recognized as increasingly important. From the initial group of a few concerned parents, the Society’s membership has now grown to include people from all over Sarawak who share the Society’s aims and concerns.
