Aplastic Anemia & Mds International Foundation

Description

• The Aplastic Anemia and MDS International Foundation is the world's leading nonprofit health organization dedicated to supporting patients and families living with aplastic anemia, myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) and related bone marrow failure diseases.A highly-respected patient-focused organization, AAMDSIF's mission is to serve its community in every cycle of these diseases. That includes providing the vital information and resources needed to adjust to the initial life-altering phase of diagnosis and get through the potentially life-threatening treatment phase that follows. We then help patients and families manage the life-long stage of having a chronic disease.The Foundation also does substantive work with health professionals, including being administrator of the MDS Clinical Research Consortium - a unique collaboration of six major academic medical centers designed to maximize the results of MDS clinical trials, to the benefit of patients everywhere. AAMDSIF also organizes a two-day biennial event - The International Scientific Symposium for Bone Marrow Failure Disease. Sponsored by the National Institutes of Health, the meetings bring together clinical researchers and medical doctors who share and compare their knowledge of bone marrow failure. This scientific exchange helps to advance new theories and encourages collaboration in the search for the cures. AAMDSIF was founded in 1983 by families who had nowhere to turn when their loved ones were afflicted with bone marrow failure disease. Its patient education, advocacy and research programs are supported through individual contributions from grateful patients, families and friends, as well as foundations and corporations. For 11 consecutive years, AAMDSIF has earned the coveted 4-star rating from leading independent charity evaluator, Charity Navigator.
