My Nonprofit Reviews

My daughter has ME, and I run the ME/FM Society of BC in Canada. The work that the OMF does gives us hope. They provide the community with excellent research, great information and opportunities, such as the live streaming of their Community Symposium on 12 August at which world class researchers and clinicians will be presenting the latest research. The OMF is a beacon in the darkness that is this awful illness.

My daughter is 24 and has been disabled by this ME/CFS since her late teens. There has been shamefully little funding made available for this illness, and The Open Medicine Foundation is one of the few organisations doing serious research in this area. They have worked tirelessly to bring the best minds to their projects, and their efforts are all the more laudable because they are functioning in an environment where there is little to no financial support for such work. The OMF is a great source of hope for my daughter and our family, and hope is all we have to keep us going right now.
