A Worthwhile Cause

CLICK HERE to read up on and donate to a very worthwhile cause!

"Welcome to the United Mitochondrial Disease Foundation. The UMDF was founded in 1996 through a merger of several smaller foundations established by those who lost loved ones to the disease. Starting as a volunteer organization based in the basement of a home, the UMDF has grown into a nationally recognized, non-profit organization.

The UMDF offers support to all sufferers of mitochondrial disorders regardless of diagnosis, suspected or confirmed. Our mission is to promote research and education for the diagnosis, treatment and cure of mitochondrial disorders and to provide support to affected individuals and families.

The UMDF is represented across the nation through volunteers who operate more than 50 local chapters, groups and ambassador programs.

Please help us redefine hope for the thousands of children and adults whose lives are compromised or shortened by the effects of mitochondrial disease.

We need your support."

Thank you for highlighting this wonderful cause. I too have someone in my life with a child suffering from this disease. Many people have never even heard of it and it is definitely a disorder that deserves our attention. Thanks Perez! Keep up the good work!
