On July 5th 2003 our daughter Maaike Vroemen, then 18 months old, was diagnosed with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML). AML is a rare form of bloodcancer with little children. (for disease information: www.leukemia.org).
On November 7th 2003 Maaike died, after 4 months of practically 24/7 hospitalization and treatment. During our stay in the hospital we experienced great help from all the staff, medical and non medical, but their resources are limited.
This is why my wife and I started a foundation.
December 2004 we founded THE MIGHTY MAAIK Foundation.

The purpose of the Mighty Maaik Foundation is trying to make a stay in a hospital more bearable for patients and the people closely involved, through entertainment.

Since the foundation is still in its early stage, there will be a lot of work to be done. Please check www.mightymaaik.nl regularly to be updated with all the news.
