Review for Foundation for Angelman Syndrome Therapeutics, Downers Grove, IL, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

There was no question that FAST stood for everything that I believed in and wanted to support as a parent of a newly diagnosed little boy with AS. This organization is committed to fighting for our children and spending every cent (100% to be exact) in the most efficient and productive ways that will produce life changing outcomes. The very first potential treatment for AS was funded by FAST and a community that worked hard to raise the funds needed to start the clinical trial that is currently under way. FAST's passion and determination is actually changing the way medical research is being funded and they have completely restored faith and hope that brighter days are ahead.

Review for Foundation for Angelman Syndrome Therapeutics, Downers Grove, IL, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

The mission of FAST has brought my family much HOPE during some initial dark days after discovering my son's AS. To learn that FAST is committed to funding the research that will bring meaningful treatments into the lives of our kids NOW while continuing to find the ultimate cure in the near future--- is simply amazing. What's even more amazing-it's driven by a volunteer board/scientific board & staff. Funds being raised via FAST are making big things happen and truly changing the landscape of our kids futures!
