CONTRO MALATTIE
E TUMORI DEL PANCREAS

Immagine generata con AI. Scenario simulato a fini illustrativi.

Da oltre vent’anni il nostro sogno è concreto: trovare una cura definitiva per le malattie e i tumori pancreatici. Per questo finanziamo borse di ricerca, promuoviamo giovani talenti e investiamo fondi per nuove tecnologie che possano fare la differenza nella vita di oltre 14.000 italiani.

In vent’anni, siamo arrivati fino a qui.
Con il tuo aiuto, possiamo arrivare ovunque.

FIMP oltre ai Progetti portati avanti in convenzione con il Ministero della Salute ha erogato contributi/donazioni liberali in favore di:
