Peter Kapitein is Ambassador of Alpe d'HuZes. He is father of two sons, Milo and Jaron. Both sportsmen and two big motivations in life for their father. Actually they are the reason that he could survive the heavy treatments. Peter is also husband and married with Marjolijn. Peter and Marjolijn know and love each other since 1983. Since 2005 Peter lives with cancer and shows other people that cancer is not always a death penalty but also it can be the start of a new and richer life full of chances and beautiful people. A Happy and Healthy life in Harmony with cancer.

32 million euros and it’s still not enough!

In 2012, our Dutch initiative Alpe d’HuZes raised no less than 32.3 million euros. When we started out in 2006, we raised a little over 300,000 euros, so this year we brought in 100 times more than six years ago. That seems impossible and incredible at the same time, but that is what we do: impossible things. (more…)

Alpe d’HuZes: Patients first!

Our initiative Alpe d’HuZes started in 2006 with 66 bikers who wanted to bike the Dutch mountain Alpe d’Huez in France and make a difference in the fight against cancer. We were aiming for 50,000 euro, but we raised 350,000 euros and were suprised by our succes.

How in the world of cancer and fundraising was this possible? (more…)
