About us
Shane Osteosarcoma Association (aka Verein Shane Osteosarkom) was founded in loving memory of Shane, a courageous boy who faced osteosarcoma with extraordinary strength and grace. Inspired by his legacy, we are committed to transforming heartbreak into hope for other children and families affected by this rare and aggressive bone cancer.

Our mission
We raise awareness, fund research and support families navigating the difficult path of childhood cancer - especially osteosarcoma. Our goal is to spark change where it’s most needed: better diagnostics, innovative treatments and more support for those who need it most.

What we do
🔬 Fund Research - We support projects focused on osteosarcoma and pediatric oncology to accelerate progress toward better outcomes.
🤝 Support families - Through support and emotional resources, we help families face the daily challenges of a osteosarcoma diagnosis.
📣 Raise awareness - We run awareness campaigns and advocate for increased attention to rare childhood cancers like osteosarcoma.
🌱 Build community - We connect people - families, researchers, supporters - who share the vision of a future without childhood bone cancer.

Join us
Whether you’re a medical professional, a donor, a grieving parent or someone who wants to make a difference, you are welcome here. Together, we can carry Shane’s light forward and create lasting impact.
