André passed away at the end of 2019 and the foundation decided to support…
Roelie runs for Ataxia Telangiectasia
Roelie Struik is taking an enormous challenge for the Twan Foundation: running 29 km in Scotland at high altitude.We are happy to share Roelie’s beautiful words of why does she do that.
My dear friend Twan (8) has an ugly monster in his body. The monster takes away daily from Twan energy and muscle power. That’s why moving becomes more and more difficult, and that affects many things during a day, but even more in life ...

Foundation Onderuit de Waterzak
In April we were able to receive a cheque worth 1550 € from the foundation ‘Onderuit de Waterzak’. This foundation released and sold the book that Eric Baas, Twan’s grandfather started. Eric couldn’t finish the book himself because he died, but others finished it for him.
It was his wish to dedicate the profit of the book for the Twan Foundation.
We are glad with this nice amount of money!
