International donations

The Chordoma Foundation is an international organization; our work with scientists and physicians, research funding, and support for patients spans the globe. Likewise, we depend on the support of donors across the world to make these programs possible.

We have established mechanisms for donors throughout Europe to receive tax benefits for donations to the Chordoma Foundation. See your country below for instructions for making a tax-deductible donation. Additionally, donors anywhere in the world can donate by credit card in $USD directly to the Chordoma Foundation.
