Jung und Krebs e.V. is a non-profit self-help association from Freiburg, which works to meet the needs of young people in the South Baden area who have cancer or are recovering from cancer. The association hosts community activities such as health-promoting workshops and excursions for those affected and their relatives. Donations are used for fulfilling the wishes of people who are currently in a difficult phase of life due to illness. 

Nationally, the association has partnerships with other patient organisations, the business community and various health professions to sustainably improve the care structure for young adults with cancer.
