Today marks a defining milestone in Kochi's journey towards transforming cancer care.
We are proud to celebrate the official launch of C/Can Kochi (City Cancer Challenge – Kochi), inaugurated today by Hon. Chief Minister Shri V.D. Satheesan.
This moment is the culmination of years of dedication, collaboration, and unwavering commitment from numerous stakeholders who believed in a shared vision of improving cancer care for every citizen. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the entire C/Can Kochi Network, the City Cancer Challenge (C/Can) Foundation, the Kochi Corporation, Hon. Mayor Adv. Minimol V K, healthcare institutions, cancer care NGOs, government agencies, patient advocates, and every individual who contributed to making this vision a reality.
Today's announcement is not the destination—it is the beginning.
The real work starts now. Together, we embark on a collaborative mission to build Kochi into a model city for equitable, accessible, high-quality, and affordable cancer care. By strengthening partnerships across the public and private sectors, we aim to create a sustainable healthcare ecosystem where every person has access to timely diagnosis, quality treatment, and compassionate support, regardless of their socioeconomic background.
Butterfly Cancer Care Foundation is honoured to be part of this transformative initiative and remains committed to working alongside all partners to make this vision a reality.
Together, we can redefine the future of cancer care in Kochi—and create a model that inspires cities across India and beyond.
