NephcEurope is an patient driven foundation for care and cure for the rare disease called Nephrotic Syndrome.
Remuneration policy/Beloningsbeleid
NephcEurope has no paid staff, but only works with volunteers. Declarations of travel expenses in case predefined approval by the official board members are the only payments made. All other income generated from donations is either spent on patient activities or research projects. The Foundation only calls for donations in case cash flow for pending projects will be too low. At this moment this is not the case.
For an extensive overview please have a look at our balance sheets as published in the link below.
