ROLFE PANCREATIC CANCER FOUNDATION

Updates On The Path To Progess

Everything we do focuses on creating better outcomes for those affected by Pancreatic Cancer. We fund early detection research because we know it’s the best opportunity to save lives. We provide patient support by connecting families with the right medical team, providing education and resources, and sometimes, we simply listen.

Voices Of Rolfe: The Peilet Family

When the Peilet family first learned of Dave’s Pancreatic Cancer diagnosis in 2020, it was at Stage 4. After learning that the cancer had already spread, Dave, together with his wife Lisa, and their children, Luc and Mari, decided to focus on providing the best quality of life.  

DASH For Success

This summer, more than 800 Pancreatic Cancer Warriors and their families hit Chicago’s Montrose Harbor to support Rolfe’s 2023 DASH for Detection. Hundreds more joined virtually to celebrate and honor their loved ones affected by Pancreatic Cancer.

This joint effort between Rolfe and Lustgarten Foundation raised nearly $230,000 which will fund Pancreatic Cancer early detection research and patient support.
