Mission: The National MALS Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the mission of providing hope and support (body, mind and spirit) to those suffering from the debilitating symptoms of Median Arcuate Ligament Syndrome (MALS) through Advocacy, Awareness, Education, and Research within the clinical and mainstream communities. We have a keen vision to see a future in which: MALS patients receive a timely diagnosis and comprehensive, supportive medical care; medical training involves new research provided to better understand this multifactorial disease; and a partnership of trust builds between the MALS patient and medical communities
Results: We created an Osmosis video to teach medical students about MALS. We have been increasing our social media presence so that we can better educate the public about MALS.
Target demographics: Patients and Caregivers get accurate information about MALS.
Direct beneficiaries per year: We directly reached over 10k people with our social media posts on a monthly basis last year.
Geographic areas served: We are based in the United States but we have helped people from around the world.
Programs: We provide education for both the Medical Community and the General Public about MALS.
