Advancing Cancer Research Together

At Cure for Cancer, our mission is to advance research into prostate, bladder, and kidney cancer to improve patient outcomes and quality of life. As an ANBI-status foundation, we rely solely on donations, gifts, and sponsorships, maintaining full financial transparency through independent audits.

Since our founding in 2009, we have raised over €12 million, supported more than 40 researchers, and published 80+ scientific articles and PhD dissertations. Our researchers collaborate with leading national and international institutions to drive innovation and enhance cancer treatment.

With partnerships across 10+ research institutions and a dedicated team of professionals and volunteers, we are proud to make a meaningful impact in cancer research and patient care.
