Why Climb?

Each year in Canada, more than 6,500 young adults are diagnosed with cancer; that's 18 per day! These young adults are faced with a host of different issues because of their stage in life; fertility, relationships and finances are completely different issues for a 20-year-old than for a 60-year-old.

Young Adult Cancer Canada (YACC) is committed to providing information, inspiration and support to young adult patients/survivors and supporters, ensuring that they don't deal with their challenges in isolation from others who get what they are going through. That's why we're taking our strength, support and courage up Signal Hill for the 10th year in a row!
