EVERY STEP IS A STEP FORWARD IN A CHILD'S FIGHT AGAINST CANCER.
To a child, being diagnosed with cancer can be devastating. We are committed to giving hope and saving lives, and with your help, there is much more that we can do.
The RBC Caribbean Children's Cancer Fund has already helped over 204 children across the Caribbean, who have been afflicted with this dreaded disease.

RBC Global Virtual Race for the Kids, supporting youth
charities around the world
Over the past decade, the RBC Race for the Kids series has grown to include 17 charitable events raising more than $57 million for our local charity partners. This year, the COVID-19 pandemic means most of our physical Races can’t happen so welcome to the first ever RBC Global Virtual Race for the Kids. Our ambition is to create the world’s biggest, virtual family fun run in support of over 30 youth charities to help them continue their incredible work at this challenging time.
The Trinidad and Tobago edition supports the RBC Caribbean Children’s Cancer Fund and assists Caribbean youth, under the age of 16, who have been diagnosed with cancer.
To date, over 204 children have been treated.
Impact of Your Support
Funds from the RBC Caribbean Children’s Cancer Fund supported a donation to the Eric Williams Medical Complex of a Flow Cytometer valued at TTD 2.5M. This machine increases survival rates as it more accurately diagnoses leukaemia at an early stage.
