My Nonprofit Reviews

After my diagnoses in 2005 I turned to The CFIDS Association (CAA) in order to educate myself about CFS and search for healthcare providers. Although I also have Fibromyalgia I never felt as connected to the resources available for that illness as I did with The CAA. The professional and personal dedication of the handful of people that make up The CAA to finding biomarkers, treatment and possibly a cure for CFS has never wavered, and I appreciate their focus on collaboration and hard science as a vehicle. I have benefited from their information sharing, (free webinars, Research1st page, CFIDS page, CFIDS on FB & Twitter), their support and representation at the government level (CFSAC meeting, etc), research grants (several solid ongoing research projects they support), and I believe their collective years of experience and passion for this cause are demonstrated through their work. This is why I support them with donations, but I also organize charity events and donate a portion from sales of my art work. The CAA understands that creating an environment of collaboration among scientist, biopharmaceutical companies, the government and The BioBank will hasten the Race to SolveCFS.
