About Canteen
We get it. Just when life should be full of possibilities, cancer crashes into a young person’s world and shatters everything. For young people aged 12-25, life should be full of possibilities. Canteen is here to help build coping skills and resilience that will last them a lifetime.
We run programs, camps and recreation days that gives young people some space away from the daily pressures of living with cancer and the opportunity to meet others who truly understand what they’re going through.
