How You Can Help
Thank you very much for considering how you can help our foundation and the research we are supporting. There are many different ways you can help. As a small non-profit organization we rely on public donations and volunteer assistance.
Obviously, we are seeking public donations to support research into new treatments for people suffering from MPS1. The MPS1 Research Foundation is a non-profit, public charity with tax-exempt status pursuant to Section 501 (c) (3) of the tax code. Our Federal Tax ID number is 27-2066831. Donations in any amount are gladly accepted and your donations are tax-deductible. Since our foundation operates entirely with the support of non-paid volunteers, administrative costs are kept to an absolute minimum so that money raised can go directly to the research we support. Simply click on the Donate button in the upper right hand corner on any page of this Website.
If you are interested in personally volunteering to help we would love to hear from you! Because our foundation is operated by non-paid volunteers, we can always use a hand with a variety of different projects including help with fundraising events, public relations, and administrative support. If your company has products or services that you think can help our foundation, please contact us.
If you are the parents of an MPS1 child, please consider sharing your child’s story with others. Erik’s Chance is just the beginning of our effort to share the stories of people with MPS1. We believe that our foundation can help create a chance for other paople with MPS1 to have a better future. To make this happen, we need the support of other MPS1 families. You can be a part of this and we hope to hear from you.
If you are aware of any medical researchers, institutions, or studies that relate to MPS1 please take the time to provide us with your information. We want to support efforts now underway to build on the success of current treatments and welcome the opportunity to find out more about the latest research into MPS1 and other genetic lysosomal storage diseases.
