Since 2011, Imagine for Margo has been fighting to accelerate research against childhood cancer.
Located on the iXblue campus in Saint-Germain-en-Laye, the association carries out numerous actions to also support families and contribute to the well-being of hospitalized children.
Thus, during the month of December its volunteers went to hospitals in the Paris region to bring gifts to hospitalized children “but also a few smiles at this end of the year period”.
In pediatric wards
As part of this operation, more than 250 gifts were placed under the trees of the pediatric departments of Gustave Roussy, the Institut Curie, the Trousseau hospital, the CHI of Poissy-Saint-Germain-en- Laye, the François Quesnay hospital in Mantes-la-Jolie and the Margency French Red Cross Children’s Hospital.
Many supports in Saint-Germain-en-Laye
“This operation was made possible thanks to the support of young people from the Institut Notre-Dame de Saint-Germain-en-Laye who mobilized and carried out a collection, at the Carrefour Chambourcy shopping center, the Orpéa Foundation and the Rotary Club of Saint-Germain-en-Laye ”,
14 million euros collected over 10 years
In 10 years of existence, Imagine for Margo has raised more than 14 million euros to finance 35 cutting-edge research programs and 28 innovative treatments, allowing more than 3,000 children to benefit from personalized treatments in Europe.
