Donation impact

Not everyone can do research. But you can support it! Our scientists are very grateful for your support. Your donation will make a real difference: you can help advance cancer research and prevention research as well as achieve new breakthroughs.

A diverse group of medical professionals stands together in a modern corridor, all wearing white lab coats. They are smiling and giving thumbs up while holding a large sign that reads "Danke!" The atmosphere is positive and celebratory.

Your donation matters

Your donation will be invested by us with the greatest care in promising research projects at the DKFZ. In particular, we support junior research groups that are developing innovative approaches to fighting cancer. These young researchers are working on the ideas and technologies of tomorrow to further improve the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. In addition, your donations go towards urgently needed resources, such as state-of-the-art laboratory equipment and technical devices, which are essential for pioneering research.

Encouraging those affected: Our supporter Melanie Berg was diagnosed with breast cancer herself a few years ago, and today she is considered cancer-free. She knows that advances in cancer research and new findings from research can change and save the lives of those affected and also of their relatives. That is why it is committed to cancer research through donations, but also by raising public awareness of the topic of cancer and cancer prevention together with the DKFZ. Through donations, through a bequest or by launching a fundraising campaign, you will help us to accelerate further research into cancer and the development of new therapies.
