Leave a gift to Stichting Overleven met Alvleesklierkanker:
your legacy can offer hope
Would you like to help create a future in which pancreatic cancer is no longer a deadly disease? By including Stichting Overleven met Alvleesklierkanker (Support Casper) in your will, you can contribute to pioneering research and innovative treatments for pancreatic cancer.
Why leave a gift to Support Casper?
Every year, around 3,000 people in the Netherlands are diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Survival rates remain distressingly low. Stichting Overleven met Alvleesklierkanker funds research into new treatments, including viro-immunotherapy. A gift in your will can make a lasting contribution to the fight against this disease and offer hope to future patients and their loved ones.
I am leaving part of my estate to Support Casper because it is a trustworthy organisation that serves the public interest through scientific research. I believe that the more people support this organisation, the greater the chance of finding ways to treat this devastating disease at an earlier stage. That means more lives can be saved.
— Martin van der Meer
How can you include us in your will?
There are several ways to support our foundation after your death. As an ANBI-registered charity, the foundation does not pay inheritance tax, so your entire gift can benefit pancreatic cancer research.
- Legacy: You can leave the foundation a fixed sum, a percentage of your estate or a specific asset, such as a house or work of art. With a legacy, the foundation is not an heir and is therefore not involved in administering the estate. That remains the responsibility of your executors. There is no statutory minimum amount, and the legacy is deducted before the remainder of the estate is distributed among your heirs.
- Residuary gift: You can appoint Stichting Overleven met Alvleesklierkanker as a sole or joint beneficiary of your estate. The foundation will then receive the percentage of your estate specified in your will.
- Named fund: From a specified minimum amount, you can establish a named fund to support an area of research that is particularly close to your heart.

In loving memory
After losing a loved one, families often look for a way to turn their grief into something hopeful. More and more people choose donations to charity in place of flowers at a funeral. Through our memorial website, you can create a personal remembrance page and raise money with family and friends for pioneering pancreatic cancer research.
Once the page has been created, you can download its QR code. Scanning the code takes people straight to the donation page. You can add it to the funeral announcement or place it on a collection box at the service, creating a lasting legacy together.
