FIAGOP Onlus

FIAGOP Italian Federation of Parents and Survivors’ Oncological Organizations.

Our mission is to guarantee to children, adolescents and young adults with childhood cancers the access to cure and a good quality of life during treatments and through the parents’ organizations to support their families.

FIAGOP was founded in 1995 with the goal to create synergies between the associations and guarantee an institutional representation, not only on a national but also on international level, in public and private institutions. The purpose is to improve and strengthen the services in the field of the italian pediatric oncohematology, to guarantee children and young adults suffering from tumors or leukemia their right to health and good quality of life, and to support their families.
