LEARN MORE
For 20 years, the Cholangiocarcinoma Foundation (CCF) has stood alongside patients, caregivers, and clinicians with a clear purpose: to find a cure and improve quality of life for those affected by cholangiocarcinoma.
What began as one family’s determination has grown into a global community advancing research, education, and patient support for this rare and devastating cancer.

Our Journey
Founded in 2006 after the loss of a loved one to cholangiocarcinoma, CCF was created to ensure that no patient or caregiver would ever face this disease alone. Over two decades, we have built a trusted, patient-centered organization that connects people to answers, accelerates research, and brings experts together across borders and disciplines.

Our progress has always been driven by people, patients who share their stories, caregivers who advocate fiercely, researchers who push boundaries, clinicians who seek better answers, and supporters who trust in our commitment to innovation to change the future.
This anniversary is a reflection of what’s possible when a community refuses to accept the status quo.
