In the midst of preparing for the busy holiday season, we realize that you are likely being asked to make end of year donations to multiple organizations. In the spirit of giving, we kindly ask for you to consider the Shwachman-Diamond Syndrome Foundation (SDSF).
As many of you are aware, we have lost two of our precious children this week alone. We must do what is necessary to save other children. We can only do this by funding research to find a cure for SDS. And bluntly, that takes money.
By providing grants to researchers, we afford the opportunity improve the quality of life for patients with the endeavor of a cure. SDSF is reliant on the generosity of our families and friends to continue the important work we do together. We are currently funding three research projects.
In addition to these efforts, we financially support the International SDS Scientific Congress, attend and exhibit at medical conferences, provide support to families, and sponsor SDS family conferences.
Please help us continue our ongoing fight against SDS by making a donation through our website:
www.shwachman-diamond.org
