🌟 International Childhood Cancer Day: Raising Awareness & Support
International Childhood Cancer Day (ICCD) is observed globally to raise awareness about cancer in children and to show support for young fighters and their families. हर साल 15 फरवरी को दुनिया भर में यह दिन मनाया जाता है, ताकि बच्चों के कैंसर के खिलाफ जागरूकता फैल सके और उनके लिए बेहतर इलाज सुनिश्चित किया जा सके।
