North Cyprus has a wonderful reputation for its ability to form effective and extremely helpful organisations to benefit the local and expat population. Some of these organisations form a group of charities dedicated to those who have fallen ill through cancer.
Their duties and services vary, but all have the same aim, and that is to provide professional, financial, medical, and psychological support through their network of helpers and volunteers.
The residents and businesses of North Cyprus are also very generous when it comes to helping to raise these funds, by waiving business fees and giving free use of their premises, attending gala dinners, bazaars and coffee mornings as well as providing items to sell at charity shops, with some doing much appreciated volunteer work in their spare time as well.
