‘Polo mit Herz’ is a non-profit organisation that aims to support children and young people with cancer and their families both financially and in terms of ideas.

The financial resources required for this are generated primarily from donations and thanks to members of the association.
Polomitherz has been working tirelessly for children with cancer since 2016. With your support, we have managed to provide valuable help to more than 200 children. Every year, we look after over 22 children and offer them not only medical support, but also much-needed psychiatric help.
Since our foundation, we have set up three specialised psychiatric programmes to strengthen the mental health of our young patients. Special projects that have a lasting positive impact on the lives of the children and their families.
