"Make people aware and sensitive to the need for research as the main driver for the prevention and treatment of illnesses"

The mission statement of the Gent per gent Foundation is to promote and contribute towards the development of biomedical research of excellence and to increase people’s awareness of such research.

The vision is to become a recurring meeting point for solidarity across the Valencian Region.

The values over which the Gent per Gent Foundation is sustained are: Solidarity, Credibility, Thoroughness and Accountability.

The objectives which we pursue at the Gent per Gent Foundation in order to accomplish our mission are:

1- Raise funds for the financing of biomedical research projects through awareness campaigns and an annual television event.

2- Promotion of biomedical research in order to:

• Improve knowledge of the supported causes and behaviours of the illnesses and their application in the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of patients in the Valencian Region.
• Support the consolidation of a stable scientific structure in the Valencian Region, the basis of a developed society.
• Promote biomedical research projects as a mean to improve the quality of life of Society and their social welfare.

3- Bridging the gap between Society and the biomedical research community in order to:

• Divulge and bring closer the biomedical research activities to the Valencia community.
• Involve Society in the promotion and support of research activities, offering business and private individuals the possibility to join in.
• Improve the relationship and understanding between Society and the scientific community.
