Imagine for Margo's work
Imagine for Margo – Children without Cancer was founded in 2011 by the parents of Margo, who died of a brain tumour at the age of 14. During her illness, they discovered that cancer research focused mainly on adult cancers, as the pharmaceutical industry considered childhood cancers to be rare diseases. During this time, Margo had started an online fundraiser to support research into her illness. After her death, her parents decided to carry on her initiative.
Since 2011, Imagine for Margo has been rallying support and raising funds to accelerate research into childhood cancer. The charity funds European programmes that help to better understand paediatric cancers and develop specific, innovative and more effective treatments for children with cancer, in partnership with the leading cancer research centres in France and across Europe.
Now officially recognised as a public-interest organisation, Imagine for Margo has become a major player in paediatric oncology in France and an influential voice in Europe. The charity has raised nearly €34 million to co-fund 100 cutting-edge research programmes, leading to 129 new therapies that benefit more than 10,000 children in Europe. Alongside this, the charity runs many well-being initiatives in paediatric oncology units and supports more than 880 families.
