Cancer hits every third Dane and makes almost everyone else a relative to someone with the disease. These sad numbers make the disease a common cause, which requires a joint effort.
- At some point in our lives, we are all affected by cancer, a disease that costs far too many Danes their lives. That is why we support Break Cancer and their goal that fewer people will get cancer and more people will survive, explains Claus Iwersen, partner and CFO of BSB Industry.
This is how the money is spent
When we stand together and raise money for Break Cancer year after year, we are all helping to fight cancer. The money raised this year goes to cancer research, prevention and patient support.
