The Rolfe Pancreatic Cancer Foundation was founded in 1999 by friends and family in honor of Michael Rolfe. What started in a living room as a small, community effort has grown into an impactful organization in the Midwest and together we are making a difference.

Rolfe’s 3 Pillars of Focus

  • Personalized patient and family support.
  • Funding research for early detection and treatment options.
  • Raising awareness of risk factors and symptoms.

Patient and Family Support

We, at the Rolfe Foundation, pride ourselves on getting to know patients and their families.  Every patient, every caregiver, is provided with personal and tailored attention to help with their journey.

We give patients and their families the exact connections and resources they need.

We’re at the frontlines, first speaking with families and then making the calls to the doctors and hospitals to expedite the referral process.

We remain with our families for continued support and guidance indefinitely.

 

 

Fundraising

Today, the Rolfe Pancreatic Foundation works toward accomplishing its goals with a caring and hardworking team led by Executive Director, Stacia Hart, an engaged and energetic board, and the passion and support of our community.  It is from the generosity of our community and partners that we’re able to make a difference.

Events

We have a variety of ways in which our community can make an impact; from individual donations, corporate partnerships and legacy gifts to DASH for Detection, our in-person events and  DIY Fundraisers.

 

 

Create Awareness

The Rolfe Foundation is part of the World Pancreatic Cancer Coalition. We partner with global leaders to take action and raise awareness. We have monthly webinars to educate and engage the community and medical professionals.

Our vision is to live in a world without pancreatic cancer.
