Rolfe Pancreatic Cancer Foundation

Pancreatic cancer is the 4th leading cause of cancer related deaths in the United States.

Rolfe Pancreatic Cancer Foundation is dedicated to providing personal support to those affected by Pancreatic Cancer through tailored resources, connections and education, and funding for early detection research. Over 43,000 Americans are diagnosed with pancreatic cancer each year and sadly, only 4% will survive five years. Yet in 2010, the National Cancer Institute allocated only 2% of its funding to pancreatic cancer research.

💜 Fundraising doesn’t have to be complicated to make a powerful impact.

One inspiring example from our community: an intimate art gathering hosted by award-winning artist Cheri Saffro, where guests explored her home gallery and enjoyed a live pastel demonstration. Artwork sales helped support pancreatic cancer research and early detection.

From art nights to bake sales, turning what you love into a fundraiser is easier than you think—and it truly makes a difference.
