HOW MUCH SHOULD I DONATE?

THE NWC appreciates if donations are made within the capacity of the donor:

Compare The NWC with other events such as a Marathon, Etape du Tour, Marmotte ... consider tax deductibility in France

What is the cause worth to you?

As guideline for Paris a minimum of €125 and for all other locations at least €75 per participant are appreciated.

It is at the citiy organizers discretion to remind those who donated less than the suggested minimums to increase their contribution to the cause.

WHY SHOULD I BE A FUNDRAISER?

• You spread the word for (HPV) cancer prevention in your community

• You will receive holiday cards to send to your donors which is great networking

• A special recognition will be awarded to fundraisers

• Optionally you will be recognized on the NWC Family page as fundraiser

WHY IS THERE NO ENTRY FEE TO THE NWC?

The NWC changed in 2020 with Covid the business model:

• The volunteers of The NWC gave the event at no entrance fee to its participants.

• The participants were asked to give within their capabilities to cancer research.

The model has proven to be very supportive of the spirit of The NWC and  it is more in line with The NWCs core values.  

Contributions from companies are used to finance the operations, the events and the growth of The NWC to allow NWC events to be "free" and donations only!

WHAT HAPPENS WITH MY DONATION?

The NWC is committed to donate a minimum of 80% of funds received from individuals to research projects.

The NWC has donated every year to cancer research in support of young researchers, special projects such as Prevention movies or a multiyear research project for "immunotherapy for cervical cancer"

Over the past 8 editions The NWC donated over €290.000 to fund 16 projects & awards in the area of virus and infection caused cancers with a strong focus on cervical cancer caused by HPV.

The NWC continues in 2024 the support of the projects “immunology for cervical cancer” at the Institut Gustave Roussy and “T-cell responses for head and neck tumours” at the German Cancer Research Center.

IS MY DONATION TAX DEDUCTIBLE?
