Krista – Crashing MAP’s party with RMAT
When I was diagnosed with Ulcerative colitis/Crohn’s disease six years ago, I was ignorant to the extent to which it would change my life. It altered all plans I had meticulously pieced together for a cohesive and creative existence within the world. The continual road of ups and downs not only affected me, they impacted my family, finances, and career. I knew people with UC/CD before I was diagnosed, yet had no idea of the daily struggles they faced, from immense pain and fatigue to brain fog to how your life stops when you have a flare. I lost my independence, financial nest egg, numerous jobs, relationships, and eventually myself.
Today is #GivingTuesday!
#GivingTuesday is finally here, and Human Para has a great way to maximize your donation dollars to fund MAP research and make a difference in the lives of Crohn’s patients and people with MAP-driven diseases around the world. If you’re new to the #GivingTuesday movement, you may want to read our introductory post first.
On November 28th, starting at 8:00 a.m. EST, Facebook and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation will match funds donated to 501(c)(3) charities up to $50,000 per nonprofit, until the $2 million in matching funds run out. Facebook is also waiving the fees for all donations made on #GivingTuesday to nonprofits through their site.
#GivingTuesday
We all know about Black Friday and Cyber Monday, but what is #GivingTuesday? In short – a great opportunity to fund some MAP research this holiday season!
Human Para’s #GivingTuesday campaign is hoping to raise $40,000 to fully fund our initial Joint Testing Study. All funds raised on #GivingTuesday will go directly to MAP research! If we raise the full amount needed for our initial study, we have more research projects waiting in the wings.
