2 euro - Fight Against Cancer - Belgium - 2024 - Coincard - BU

2 euro commemorative coin dedicated to the 100 years of fighting cancer in Belgium, BU.

Under the protection of Queen Elisabeth, the National Belgian League against Cancer was founded in 1924, which later gave rise to both the Foundation against Cancer and Kom op tegen Kanker. A hundred years ago, the foundation was laid for the permanent fight against cancer and for the support of patients in Belgium, which has also been continued over the years by other organizations and movements. Extensive media attention for cancer as well as many initiatives that have emerged around it provide considerable support.
In recent years, science has made spectacular progress in the fight against cancer, increasing survival rates and extending lifespan. Although a diagnosis can be extremely hard and the road to recovery can be quite difficult, we should certainly not lose courage. More than ever, we must dare to adopt a positive attitude in confronting cancer. Not only the specific input of the oncologist, but also the support of the psychologist and physiotherapist plays an invaluable role. Without forgetting the valuable help of the healthcare provider or volunteer, of course.
