PUERTO RICO
Puerto Rico is an island in the Caribbean and a commonwealth territory of the United States. It leads the tourism industry with its fascinating natural locations and historical landmarks, such as the Yunque Rainforest and “El Morro.” Due to the island’s history, it has a rich multicultural community with an ethnically diverse population of both Spanish and English speakers.
Since it is a small territory, much support is needed to assist pediatric patients in Puerto Rico, especially those with cancer.
Cancer Kids First Puerto Rico aims to address their needs as much as possible and help them regain a normal childhood.
