Soleterre

Soleterre is a nonprofit organization that provides medical treatment, safe housing and counseling support to children affected by cancer worldwide. We believe that everyone deserved to have access to a healthy life—one with access to excellent medical treatment, psychological assistance, and dignity.

As of 2023, we are active in 8 countries including Italy, Ukraine, Poland, Morocco, Burkina Faso, Uganda, Ivory Coast, and El Salvador. Our objective is to improve the quality of life for children battling cancer and raise their overall survival rate worldwide.

We aid patients and their families providing medical treatment, psychological support, economic relief and safe housing. We are also active in financing scientific research programs, upgrades to hospital spaces, and developing programs focused on cancer prevention and early diagnosis. Every year we assist nearly 3,000 minors with medical treatment, economic aid, and counseling for their families. Soleterre works closely with local communities, allowing us to respond quickly to health emergencies and other crises that arise in the areas where we work.

Our campaign, "Great Against Cancer" is an international effort to build family homes for children with cancer. These are local spaces with easy access to nearby hospitals where families can stay free of charge during the duration of their loved one's cancer treatment. Our mission is to offer families who are suffering through the unthinkable to find some semblance of peace, together.

We are currently focused on providing relief for families impacted by the ongoing war in Ukraine. Since February 24, 2022, Soleterre has been working round the clock to ensure that there is continued access to medical treatment, safe housing, and counseling support for children with cancer and their families in Kyiv and Lviv. Our current projects dedicated to this mission include Unbroken Kids, Rebuilding Hope for Ukrainian Families, and Emergency in Ukraine - Immediate Relief Assistance. Our most recent endeavor, Unbroken Kids, seeks to offer support for those children who have been wounded in the ongoing violence, offering lifesaving treatment, psychological support, and physiotherapy.
