Prinses Beatrix Spierfonds
Powerful against muscle diseases
The Princess Beatrix Spierfonds is committed to people with a muscle disease in the Netherlands. There are over 200,000 of them. It is our goal to eradicate all muscular diseases from the world. Our most important tool in this fight is scientific research. We fund and encourage research into cures and quality of life for people with muscular diseases at this time. Together with international experts, we carefully weigh which research we fund. That way, everyone who contributes can be sure that their money and effort are of real value. Invaluable value. We can do all of this thanks to donations and the efforts of volunteers.
What research can mean
We know it can. For Pompe disease, with our help, a drug has been developed that saves lives. But there are still 599 muscle diseases to go. This will require further scientific research, which means time and money. By raising as many funds as possible, we can do more research. More research offers more chance of results in less time. It’s that simple.

Roprarun
The Roparun is a relay race of more than 500 kilometers from Paris, Bremen and Almelo to Rotterdam in which people, in teams, deliver a sporting achievement in order to raise money for people with cancer. Also called an adventure for life. Incidentally, this is also reflected in the motto which has for years been: “Adding life to the days, where often no more days can be added to life.”
Villa Joep
What Villa Joep does
Villa Joep is the leading fund in the field of childhood neuroblastoma cancer. Every year, 25 to 30 young children in the Netherlands are diagnosed with neuroblastoma. Their cure rate is shockingly low. This makes neuroblastoma one of the most aggressive forms of childhood cancer. The figures bear this out: 60% to 70% of children with the most severe form of neuroblastoma die.
Research central
Villa Joep’s goal is that all children should be able to be cured of neuroblastoma. Everything we do contributes to this objective. In doing so, we put neuroblastoma research centre stage so that we speed up and increase the chances of a cure. A lot of money is needed to fund this important scientific research. Villa Joep depends entirely on donations for this. In doing so, we are proud to make the donor a promise that every euro received will be spent 100% on neuroblastoma research.
During the Country & Christmas Fair, Villa Joep will have a stand and we will sell the Villa Joep soft toy and the Villa Joep Christmas ball. Felt figures (elephants and owls) are also made for Villa Joep. Of this, all proceeds will go to Villa Joep.
