Supporting the Canadian Gene Cure Foundation
The Canadian Gene Cure Foundation is a national charitable organization that endorses the donor bill of rights developed by fundraising professionals worldwide. We rely on the support and generosity of individuals and organization who share our values and our mission to make a positive difference in the lives of families living with genetic disease.
Charitable gifts from individuals, corporations and foundations support:
- Research Grants
- MD/PhD Scholarschips
- Gene Researcher for a Week Program
- Canadian Human Genetics Conference
How can you help:
Every single donation plays a key role in helping Canadian scientists discover important genetic links in a variety of diseases including diabetes, Down's Syndrome and cancer. In 2007, we were able to provide four research grants totalling $280,000 to research teams investigating new treatment options for highly debilitating genetic diseases including: Gaucher's disease; vitamin B12 deficiency; mitochondrial disease; and cystinosis.
