The ATS Cancer Foundation was founded on the 6th of April 2021 and will carry out its Mission by focusing its work on four Areas:
- Lodging & Transport- The foundation is focused on providing Cancer Patients with Self Contained rooms for patients referred to Port Moresby General Hospital or other for Treatment. We will lodge the patient and then transport the patient to and from the hospital upon doctors advise. We are simply helping patients who could not afford to come to the city to get Medical Help due to no Wantoks or transport etc.
- Medical Services- The foundation is also dedicated to providing Cancers Patients with services such as X-rays and scan machines to prevent patients from sitting in long queues at public hospitals.
