Sheam Kannan was diagnosed with ALL when he was just three. The uncertainties of life from his condition had caused severe pain, and many sleepless nights for his parents.

Sheam's condition and cancer treatments at the hospital deprived him of a normal childhood. He also experienced multiple adverse physiological and psychological side effects from the painful treatments. He had frequent dizzy spells, was physically weak, and every bout of fever made him fear it was a symptom of a cancer relapse.

CCF was a source of support for Sheam during his journey and to pay it forward, he shaved his head at Hair for Hope to raise funds and increase childhood cancer awareness.

A Singapore Polytechnic valedictorian and a Ministry of Health Holdings scholar, Sheam is now pursuing a degree in Electrical Engineering at the National University of Singapore.

Help CCF to raise funds through our annual fundraising event, Hair for Hope, to give our children hope and a promising future!
