Welcome to The DEAR Foundation

The DEAR Foundation helps people in need, particularly women and children.

The DEAR Foundation does this by supporting humanitarian projects, administered by NGOs throughout the world.

The DEAR Foundation is financially independent, but will be pleased to accept individual donations, bequests and contributions from charities. This enables the foundation to provide even more help.

The headquarters of The DEAR Foundation are located in Switzerland. It operates very efficiently with a small team, and accompanies and checks each of the projects it supports on location. 100% of the donations are injected into the projects.

Far too many children loose their mothers or husbands their wives.

We want to change that. With this movie we will reach the poorest women worldwide who do not have access to regular medical care. The movie has two main goals:

  1. Removal of all cultural taboos surrounding breast cancer and self examination.
  2. Give access to medical information about breast cancer, offer advice on what you can do in your everyday life if you have been diagnosed with this illness and create valuable networks, self-help-groups and links worldwide.
