AECC Rallies Córdoba in Fund Drive to Reach 70% Cancer Survival by 2030

Donations fuel nationwide research alongside free patient support that aims to raise survival prospects, easing family burdens.

Overview

  • AECC held its street collection in Córdoba with 27 tables and roughly 100 volunteers, pairing donations with a one‑minute public freeze to show how often cancer strikes.
  • The campaign seeks funding for research toward a 70% survival rate by 2030, with more than 3,000 researchers across 160 institutions working on AECC‑backed projects.
  • AECC Córdoba reported more than €308,000 for research in 2025 and said its free support programs served 2,387 people in the province that year.
  • Last year’s nationwide collection brought in over €2.9 million, providing a reference point for the scale of this year’s effort.
  • Patients and families can access no‑cost help such as psychological care, physiotherapy, nutrition support, lodging near treatment, and legal‑labor guidance.
