Because our administrative costs are fully covered by dedicated donations.<\/p><p><strong>How can you guarantee the use of the foundation's funds for ME\/CFS research?<\/strong><\/p><p>Our statutes restrict the use of funds to the charitable purposes \"<em>Promotion of science and research as well as public health and public health care ...<\/em>\" with a focus on ME\/CFS. All donations received by the gGmbH may be used exclusively for these purposes.<\/p><p>And like every other foundation, we are also subject to regular monitoring by the tax office. In case of violations of the non-profit law or our statutes, the tax office would revoke our non-profit status. The tax office also checks that our administrative costs do not exceed a \"reasonable amount\" (typically 10-20% of donations are accepted). Regardless of this, our administrative costs are fully covered by dedicated funds. Thus, no (!) administrative costs are covered by our donation income and we can guarantee that 100% of your donation goes to ME\/CFS research (see above).<\/p><p>As with foundations under civil law, no withdrawals of assets by the shareholder are permitted in the case of a gGmbH (a German form of non profit limited liability company). In the course of establishing the ME\/CFS Research Foundation gGmbH, the share capital of \u20ac25,000 was paid in by the founder and managing partner Joerg Heydecke. Formally, the gGmbH therefore \"belongs\" to Joerg Heydecke. However, unlike a regular GmbH (limited liability company), gGmbH shareholders cannot freely dispose of the funds of the gGmbH. All income (donations, interest, other income) may only be used within the framework of the statutes and for non-profit purposes.<\/p><p>A sale of the gGmbH would be formally possible, but only at the nominal value of the share capital (\u20ac25,000 in this case). Even in the event of a liquidation (dissolution) of the gGmbH, all funds in excess of the nominal capital must be allocated to a comparable non-profit purpose. These strict regulations ensure that shareholders of a gGmbH cannot obtain a return from the gGmbH either through distributions or through a sale.<\/p><p>For more information, please check e.g. <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/de.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Gemeinn\u00fctzige_GmbH\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wikipedia (German language)<\/a><\/span> and in the legal texts linked there.<\/p><p>However, the most important reason for using our funds exclusively for ME\/CFS research is the motivation of our founder and managing partner Joerg Heydecke. As a relative of a ME\/CFS patient, his goal is to advance biomedical research into ME\/CFS in order to enable better diagnostics and ultimately therapies in the future. To this end, he founded the ME\/CFS Research Foundation 2022 and has been investing a lot of money, time and energy in this project ever since.<\/p><p>Plese see our <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mecfs-research.org\/en\/news-events\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">News &amp; Events<\/a><\/span> section for some of the results of the ME\/CFS Research Foundation Team's work so far.

For me as the father of a (then) 18-year-old patient, this was unbelievable: there is a serious illness, around 60% of patients are unable to work as a result and nobody cares. Doctors are still fobbing off patients suffering from ME\/CFS with embarrassing diagnoses such as psychosomatic illness - and this even happens at university hospitals!\" <\/em>A misdiagnosis can have dramatic consequences for those affected, criticises Heydecke. <em>\"It was only through<\/em><em>Long-COVID that these diseases were recognised as a relevant problem. There is now even initial research funding at federal and state level. This is a start, but it is still far from enough.<\/em>&#8220;<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-toggle-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-title-6575\" class=\"elementor-tab-title\" data-tab=\"5\" role=\"button\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-6575\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon elementor-toggle-icon-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-closed\"><i class=\"fas fa-caret-right\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened\"><i class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened fas fa-caret-up\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-toggle-title\" tabindex=\"0\">Is the ME\/CFS Research Foundation a foundation (German \"Stiftung\")?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-6575\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"5\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-6575\"><p>Formally, we are non-profit limited liability company (\"gGmbH\" in German).
