Grupo VAPF has collaborated once more with the Asociation of Parents of Children with Cancer in the Comunidad Valenciana - ASPANION, by funding a Family Fun Day full of entertainment and companionship. All this by celebrating a terrifying Halloween at the amusment park Terra Mítica.
The family day took place on 26th October at the amusement park Terra Mítica, and was aimed at more than 100 people.
These family days are very important for those families who live with the hard reality of childhood cancer.
Children affected by cancer suffer a huge impact when they are diagnosed, due to the aggressive treatment, the drastic break with their environment, hospitalization.. all this has adverse psychological effects on the child and their families. Also, in the siblings of the sick children, many suffer by the change of their relationship in the family.
These family days promote unity between brothers and sisters and they facilitate the integration of the minors with cancer into society.
It is demonstrated that the participation of this type of playful days, improves the mood of the children, which reflects on their general state and their recovery process.
The association ASPANION, founded in 1985, has been working since then to offer psychological, social and economic support to families who have or have had a child with cancer, to promote comprehensive care in advanced disease, social cooperation and volunteerism and dissemination of information on childhood cancer and its aftermath.
It Is an honor for VAPF Group to have collaborated with ASPANION, in an initiative that allows both the children and their families to enjoy a day of coexistence, fun and relaxation.
