About World Cancer Day & Mangalore Can-Walk

World Cancer Day is observed every year on February 4 to unite the world in the fight against cancer. The theme for 2025–2027, “United by Unique,” celebrates the power of our differences and the strength of coming together for one cause. It reminds us that while every story is unique, our goal of a cancer-free future is shared by all.

Organized by KMC Hospital Attavar Oncology Centre on 1st February 2026, 06:00 AM as a part of World Cancer Day 2026 activites on February 1st 2026, Mangalore Can-Walk is a community movement dedicated to raising awareness, support, and compassion for individuals and families affected by cancer. It brings together survivors, caregivers, doctors, nurses, students, volunteers, and citizens of all ages — reminding us that the fight against cancer is not an individual journey, but a collective one.

More than just an event, Mangalore Can-Walk represents the spirit of our city — caring, united, and determined to ensure that no one faces cancer alone
