The Daniel den Hoed Foundation: supporting cancer research
Giving for a cancer-free future
The Daniel den Hoed Foundation is part of the Erasmus MC Foundation. Its task is to raise money to fund medical research at the Erasmus MC Cancer Institute. With your support, we can work towards a better future for all those affected by cancer.
Thanks to the advances stemming from scientific studies, the prospects for cancer patients are distinctly improving. But it’s still a long way to go. A huge amount of money is needed to fund pioneering research and innovative equipment, so that we can give our patients personalised treatment based on the latest research findings.
So please join us in the fight against cancer and support scientific cancer research at the Erasmus MC! Your gift can change people’s lives.

The Thorax Foundation: supporting research into cardiovascular and pulmonary disease
The Erasmus MC Thorax Centre is a centre of excellence for cardiology, pulmonary medicine and cardiothoracic surgery. It has been an undisputed world leader in both patient care and specialist research and teaching for the past 50 years. Every year, the Centre provides some 25,000 patients with highly complex care, including around 1,200 cases of open-heart surgery and 20 heart transplants.
In the wake of shrinking government budgets and ever stricter legislation on funding by the pharmaceutical industry, private finance is becoming a growing necessity. The Erasmus MC Thorax Foundation was founded in 2012 as a means of raising funds to be used for the exclusive purpose of supporting research.
