Mission

Within .All brains are therefore focused on three domains: • SUNLY HERE The quality of our brain determines the quality of our life and our society. We want to know how to get the most out of our brains, where the threats are and how to prevent them. • HERE DISCLOSURES We want to contribute to the global efforts to prevent and cure brain diseases. By making our knowledge widely available and funding our share in research. • PATIENT CARE Brain patients must also be able to get the most out of themselves. We help to improve and make treatment methods more accessible and to ask attention to their needs and interests.

Binnen ‘Heel de hersenen’ richten we ons dus op drie domeinen: • GEZONDE HERSENEN De kwaliteit van onze hersenen bepaalt de kwaliteit van ons leven en onze samenleving. We willen weten hoe we het meeste uit onze hersenen kunnen halen, waar de bedreigingen zijn en hoe we die kunnen voorkómen. • HERSENAANDOENINGEN We willen bijdragen aan de wereldwijde inspanningen om hersenaandoeningen te voorkómen en genezen. Door onze kennis breed beschikbaar te stellen en ons aandeel op het gebied van onderzoek te financieren. • PATIËNTENZORG Ook hersenpatiënten moeten het maximale uit zichzelf kunnen halen. We helpen hierbij door behandelmethodes te verbeteren en toegankelijker te maken en aandacht voor hun behoeftes en belangen te vragen.

Do the free Puzzle Challenge! Put your brains to work with the free 8-day Puzzle Challenge! Puzzle is good for your brain, but did you also know that Hersenstichting Nederland is classified as a health organization registered in Netherlands.

Hersenstichting Nederland carries the CBF-Erkend Goed Doel label - the Dutch quality seal awarded by the Centraal Bureau Fondsenwerving (CBF). To qualify, a charity passes a three-yearly independent audit covering governance (separation of board, oversight, and management), financial transparency (audited annual accounts, clear expense breakdown), effective use of donations, responsible fundraising practices, and a working complaints procedure. You can read the public 'CBF-paspoort' for Hersenstichting Nederland here: https://cbf.nl/organisaties/894. The passport shows the most recent audit outcome and the headline financial ratios.

As an ANBI, Hersenstichting Nederland is legally required to publish the following information on its own website, free of charge and without a login (the 'publicatieplicht' obligation under Uitvoeringsregeling AWR 1994 art. 1a): the policy plan, an overview of the past year's activities, the financial statements (balance sheet, profit-and-loss, explanatory notes), board composition with names, and the remuneration policy for directors and key staff. Larger ANBIs (turnover above €50,000) must also publish a fuller financial report using the Belastingdienst's standard ANBI publication form. If you cannot find these documents on the organisation's website, that is a red flag worth raising with the board before donating.
