We're thrilled to share a milestone for breast cancer care in Papua New Guinea💞

The first breast cancer program participant has now been approved under our collaboration with Port Moresby General Hospital.

Thanks to our strong partnership with local physicians, women experiencing advanced breast cancer in Nepal can now access their treatment through a new program at B.P. Koirala Memorial Hospital.

This expansion is meaningful as these patients were previously bearing the full cost of treatment.

💡Access to medicine is not a privilege—it’s a human right! For people with conditions such as cancer, access to treatment is about survival. Yet behind every box of medicine is a journey that shouldn’t be this difficult and too often, patients are the ones who feel the impact when delays happen.
December 11, 2025 at 10:21 AM
At age 18, Archana was preparing for her final college exams when a sudden fever changed everything. What was first dismissed as stress soon revealed a diagnosis of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML).

Her worry switched from a college exam and losing a year to now a bigger test: the test of survival.

Five years ago, at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, Vhinz’s world turned upside down. He was 34 when unexplained fatigue, night sweats, and sudden weight loss led to a diagnosis of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). With lockdowns in place, accessing care was difficult.
