Riyadh, KSA – Gulftech : Saudi-based non-profit SANAD Children’s Cancer Support
Association has partnered with La Vache qui rit, which is celebrating its 100-year anniversary, to
bring laughter to those who need it most.
SANAD Children’s Cancer Support Association provides services to children with tumors in all
regions of the Kingdom, supports children’s centres with the medical equipment they need, and
provides social, residential, educational and recreational services for patients and their families –
citizens and residents – in need. In addition, the center also focuses on funding research and
studies in the field of childhood cancer.
Running for one month starting 15 February, La Vache qui rit has introduced a dedicated web-
application where consumers can register and “laugh to donate”. By showcasing the uniqueness
and power of each person’s laughter, for every laugh recorded, La Vache qui rit will turn this into
a monetary donation towards the SANAD Children’s Cancer Support Association.
A simple click on https://100ytlc.com is all that is required to record their laughter through the
device’s microphone, each laugh recorded will boost contributions toward children in need.
Donations generated through the online platform will be utilized towards the Association’s Make
a Wish programme. This programme focuses on making children’s wishes come true; ranging
from toys such as blocks and puzzles, to gadgets such as gaming consoles and smartphones,
to large scale activities such as a curated personalized art gallery.
“We believe that our partnership with La Vache qui rit for the Golden February campaign and
supporting children with cancer is a noble cause, and we proudly celebrate it this year with
International Children Cancer Day. This monetary contribution will be towards “Make a wish”
program that fulfills children’s wishes. We believe that making their wishes come true during the
difficult times they are going through, will help improve their lives and maintain their
psychological balance during intensive treatments. This year’s slogan “Gold at heart”, is for all
the pure hearts who are willing to contribute to our fruitful journey, said Reem Alhegelan,
