My Nonprofit Reviews

Consano is a fantastic way for individuals to donate directly to medical researchers. The project descriptions let you know what disease(s) are being targeted and what, specifically, the money being raised will go towards. You can find researchers studying those conditions that you are passionate about for personal reasons, or learn about new ones that are just as worth of your investment. The projects are updated and added to frequently. On Consano's website, you can also see stories from people whose lives have been touched by many of the illnesses being studied. It's inspiring, heartwarming, and bittersweet. When I donated recently, I even received a very rapid thank you directly from one of the labs I supported, and the PI offered an avenue for donors to directly contact them through email about research. As a researcher in the natural (nonmedical) sciences, that kind of connection is amazing! Finally, funding for scientific research has rapidly dwindled in our current economic climate, and thinking about the setbacks this could cause for medical progress is frustrating and frightening. Consano offers you a way to do something about that as well. Support loved ones facing health challenges, support science research, support medical progress!
