Hear directly from patients and caregivers about why they give to the DTRF and urge others to donate too.

Please contact your financial advisor for guidance. For more information, email us at development@dtrf.org.
Planned and Deferred Gifts
You may arrange to donate to the DTRF through a provision in your will or other means such as charitable gift annuities, trusts, life insurance, etc.
Planned giving, which can be arranged by your attorney, integrates your charitable gift to the DTRF with your overall financial, tax, and estate planning goals. Planned giving will help provide resources for the DTRF to carry out its mission in the years to come.

“So proud of the work DTRF is doing and so happy to help fund their inspiring work towards a cure.”

“Because this is a rare tumor, there aren’t a lot of funding sources for research into new cures. It’s only through the work of the Desmoid Tumor Research Foundation that we’ve been able to develop this kind of research which is going to make a big difference, and ultimately cure patients who have desmoid tumors.”

“DTRF provides a wealth of knowledge and support, always quick to reply to a request with regular updates about where donations are used to help. Thank you for all you do.”
