Applications open: Bladder Cancer Awareness Month Grants

For the third consecutive year, the World Bladder Cancer Patient Coalition is thrilled to offer the Bladder Cancer Awareness Month Grants (BCAM Grant) for 2024. The BCAM Grant aims to enable patient organisations, support, or advocacy groups in low and middle-income countries to bring awareness to bladder cancer in their communities.

Every year, more than 614,000 people receive bladder cancer diagnosis around the world. For many patients, their diagnosis will be the very first time they hear about bladder cancer. Bladder cancer is a forgotten cancer, and it should not be. We need to unite and raise our voices for people affected by bladder cancer. World Bladder Cancer Awareness Month in May 2024 is a chance for us to precisely do that – join us!

What you need to know:

• 4 BCAM Grants worth up to €750 each are available (financial and/or in-kind support based on proposed applicant budget)
• April 5, 2024 – Deadline to submit your application
• April 12, 2024 – We will inform you of the decision
• May 1-7, 2024 – Your activities should start during the awareness month and not later than this date.
• July 1, 2024 – Deadline to submit an impact report 

During the last two years, we awarded grants to advocates in Albania, Brazil, Egypt, India, Malawi and South Africa. Learn more and get inspired by their campaigns and their impact during Bladder Cancer Awareness Month here.
