About Us

DEGETHA & FRIENDS

GERMAN SOCIETY FOR THALASSEMIA AND ALL RARE DISEASES (RD)

Our association was founded in 2014. The founding members and all active members are made up of affected and non-affected people.

What is special about DEGETHA & FRIENDS is that

the association acts as an international point of contact for mental health in rare diseases.
at least 50% of the board is made up of those affected.
the active members of the association bring many different professional qualifications to their voluntary work.
one member of the association is a doctor (hematologist) who authentically supports DEGETHA & FRIENDS, as he himself was born with a rare disease.

.

We provide support, advice, and training for ALL rare diseases.
