ABOUT SHAILA CANCER FOUNDATION
Turning Interest into Action
Here at Shaila Cancer Foundation, we see the value in everyone. We want to be a catalyst for positive change, and since our beginnings in 2000, we’ve been driven by the same ideas we initially founded our Charitable Trust upon: support, empowerment and progress.
Dealing with the challenges of today requires problem-solvers who bring different perspectives and are willing to take risks. Shaila Cancer Foundation emerged out of a pursuit to inspire and support the community, and a desire for actions to speak louder than words.
