Marga Comiotto Stiftung

Private foundation

About the funder

The Marga Comiotto Foundation, based in Uhldingen-Mühlhofen, supports psycho-oncology and psychosocial research for cancer patients. It was founded by Silvano Comiotto after his wife Marga passed away from cancer in 1990 at the age of 36. Since then, the foundation has specifically promoted specialized institutions and projects that offer psychological and psychosocial support to cancer patients and their relatives. Through financial contributions, campaigns, and public relations, it helps to close gaps in psycho-oncological care and to enhance the professional quality of services in hospitals and outpatient clinics.
