Light for Childhood Cancer: February 2025 CharityRx Charity of the Month

Childhood cancer is a devastating challenge that affects far too many families. This February, we’re proud to introduce Light for Childhood Cancer as the CharityRx Charity of the Month. This fund supports charities specializing in groundbreaking research and vital care for children battling cancer and their families.

But there’s a unique way to help, and it’s simpler than you think. By filling prescriptions with the CharityRx prescription discount card, you save money and directly contribute to a greater mission—bringing light and hope to children affected by cancer.

Here’s an in-depth look at the partnership, the tremendous impact of your ongoing support, and why helping these young warriors matters now more than ever.

CharityRx and Supporting Childhood Cancer

At CharityRx, we believe in making a difference, one prescription at a time. When you use the CharityRx prescription discount card to save on your pharmacy bills, a portion of the savings helps funds like Light for Childhood Cancer.

Thanks to your support, CharityRx has contributed over $10,000 to national organizations and local children fighting cancer through the Light for Childhood Cancer fund since 2023. These donations have gone toward lifesaving treatments, family services, and innovation in childhood cancer research.

Saving money on your medication has never made such a meaningful impact.

The Impact of Your Support

Your commitment to using the CharityRx card has already made a world of difference. Because of you, CharityRx has supported childhood cancer charities working tirelessly to improve survival rates, provide treatments, and support families during what is often the most challenging time of their lives.

Consider this:

• According to the World Health Organization (WHO), more than 400,000 children aged 0-19 are diagnosed with cancer every year globally.  
• While over 80% of children in high-income countries survive childhood cancer, the cure rates drop to less than 30% in low- and middle-income countries due to lack of access to proper care.  
• Childhood cancer is one of the leading causes of death in children worldwide, and early diagnosis, proper treatments, and research funding can make a crucial difference.  

Your ongoing use of the CharityRx prescription discount card empowers funds like Light for Childhood Cancer to tackle these statistics and provide hope for a brighter future.

Why Supporting Childhood Cancer Matters

Childhood cancers often have no clear causes, and prevention isn’t generally possible. However, research has shown that early diagnosis and access to high-quality care can significantly improve outcomes.

The most significant barriers to survival in low- and middle-income countries include delayed or incorrect diagnoses, abandonment of treatment, and limited access to resources like medication and palliative care. Tackling these issues requires sustained funding and collective effort—something you’re helping to achieve with every prescription you fill using the CharityRx card.

Here are critical facts about childhood cancer, as highlighted by the WHO:

• Most types of childhood cancer are treatable: With access to appropriate medication, surgery, and radiotherapy, over 80% of childhood cancers are curable.  
• Palliative care is essential: Even when a cure isn’t possible, palliative care is vital to improve the quality of life for children and their families.  
• Data systems save lives: Reliable childhood cancer data drives stronger policies and improvements in care quality.

By supporting charities like Light for Childhood Cancer, you can help improve access to life-saving treatments and resources—one prescription at a time.
