ReNanci is a non-profit organization that was founded in 2011. In Asunción, Paraguay. Its mission is to improve the survival of children and adolescents (ages 0 to 18) with cancer by promoting access to adequate treatment in a timely manner and providing comprehensive assistance to the child and their family.
Fundación ReNaci is part of the HOPE department (Hemato-Oncology Department at the Hospital de Clinicas) that is comprised of dedicated physicians focused on scientific treatment/research.
By building their own facility, “Centro de Bienestar Integral RENACI” will be a wellness center for children with cancer, eight minutes from HOPE - Hospital De Clinicas. The project includes oncology services areas, a specialized diagnostic laboratory, doctor offices, a psychological support office, areas for recreational activities during treatment, educational classroom, rehabilitation hospice care room, kitchenette, waiting room and toilets.
Fundación Renaci does not have a standalone facility to provide their services. They currently operate at the pediatric children’s hospital and at four satellite offices throughout the country. They would like to have their own facility apart from the hospital and satellite locations to direct the patients and families to one location.
