Rolf Luft Foundation for Diabetes Research is completely dependent on gifts and legacies for its activities. The contributions go to support diabetes research. The foundation has bank giro 5799-9559.
Rolf Luft’s Foundation for Diabetes Research was established in 2004 with the primary goal to support research into diabetes and its sequelae. With your gift, you can make a difference to those affected by diabetes and also help prevent more people from contracting the disease.
The foundation’s operations are mostly managed on a non-profit basis. All financial contributions go to support the Rolf Luft Award, scholarships to young researchers, and soon also to lectures/webinars for the public about news in diabetes research and treatment.
