The Cause: Transforming Cancer Care in Your Community
Fighting for better cancer care today – and for the future.
Over 100,000 new cancer cases will be diagnosed in Ontario every year due to our growing and aging population, according to projections. By 2030 that number is expected to climb to an estimated 115,300 cases diagnosed every year.
Help us keep up with increasing demand and send more patients home to their loved ones by supporting leading-edge cancer care in our community.
Purchase our gear or make a donation to the Mississauga Fire Fighters’ Pink Truck Tour fundraising campaign! Your support means the residents of Mississauga, Peel Region and West Toronto can continue to rely on Trillium Health Partners (THP) for timely cancer diagnoses and leading-edge treatments that save lives.
Your Support Brings Life-Saving Treatments to Our Community
Community support enables Trillium Health Partners to adopt advanced techniques and state-of-the-art equipment for faster, more precise cancer care for better outcomes.
For example, last year we performed our first Transarterial Radioembolization Procedure (Y-90) to treat liver cancer, a minimally invasive approach that delivers targeted radiation to attack cancer cells and spare healthy tissue. This leading-edge treatment can prolong lives and enhance quality of life or allow the patient to receive a liver transplant and potentially cure their disease.
Join the fight today for a healthier tomorrow.
