Our Organization

The Luxembourg Lyme Alliance has been founded by 4 young people that have been personally (directly or indirectly) affected by Lyme disease and were confronted with the complete lack of any community driven help.

The Luxembourg Lyme Alliance aims to promote knowledge about Lyme disease and its coinfections, raise awareness within Luxembourg society, support affected or interested individuals, and establish an online presence for easy contact and information dissemination.

The Luxembourg Lyme Alliance is a volunteer run and thus relies on your help and donations to function properly.
