2023 Summer Match Challenge

I am taking the Summer Match Challenge to make a difference for the Ataxia community! Will you support my cause? The Michael and Patricia Clementz-Peterson Family Fund and an anonymous donor have pledged to match every donation to my campaign during the month of June, up to $100,000.

NAF offers a variety of programs and services to the Ataxia community. Last year, they spent nearly $2.5 million funding research and providing programs that directly support people living with Ataxia. Donations to this campaign support their mission of accelerating the development of treatments and a cure while working to improve the lives of those living with Ataxia.

A few ways that NAF delivers on their mission:

• Provide direct funding for Ataxia research
• Educate neurologists to improve clinical care for Ataxia patients
• Lead collaboration efforts for those involved in Ataxia drug development
• Connect people affected by Ataxia to create an atmosphere of support, education, and sharing
• Advocate to policymakers to amplify the voice of the Ataxia community
• Educate Ataxia patients, their families, and their caregivers about research, treatment development, and best practices for clinical care
