Founded by Royal Decree by His Majesty King Abdullah II of Jordan in 2001 as an independent, non-governmental, not-for-profit organization, the King Hussein Cancer Foundation and Center were established to transform the bleak status quo of cancer in Jordan, and restore hope and health to patients across the Kingdom and the region.
In pursuit of that goal, under the steadfast leadership of its Chairperson, HRH Princess Ghida Talal, KHCF and KHCC have grown into the largest community-based organization in Jordan, dedicated to combating cancer.
