Approved Benficiaries
Beneficiaries must be approved by the Board of Foundation before donations are transferred or recommended. All members of the UICC (International Union Against Cancer) are automatically approved beneficiaries. They must, however, confirm that all funds received through SWISS BRIDGE are used for research purposes. The UICC, located in Geneva, is devoted exclusively to all aspects of the worldwide fight against cancer.
Members of the UICC
The UICC has nearly 300 members worldwide. The full list of UICC members may be obtained from the SWISS BRIDGE Secretariat or directly from the UICC in Geneva. When SWISS BRIDGE allocates assets to a UICC member, we can be certain that the research institute in question meets our demanding requirements.
