Fundraising Activities

IFOND NEWS

Fundraising

IFOND gratefully acknowledges all our generous donors. For years a large portion of our funding has been from the IFOND annual golf outing. This happy event will continue. Email us if you are attending. Recently we have also been getting a steady but modest flow of online donations from many sources. In July 2010 we were graced with a large donation from The Welcoming Club of Garden City. See our fundraising section for further details and recognition. Without your generous giving our important research would not happen.

Brazil LHON Field Trip Reports

With your support, IFOND sponsors research on the world's largest Leber Hereditary Optic Neuropathy [LHON] pedigree. In our projects section Dr Alfredo Sadun, the study co-ordinator, has summarized the studies to date since 2001 when they began with IFOND sponsorship. We have pushed the frontiers of knowledge about Leber Hereditary Optic Neuropathy. Please donate to IFOND to see this and other worthwhile IFOND work continue.

Annual Golf Outing

Our annual Golf Outing Fundraiser will be held on Monday September 13, 2010 at the Spook Rock Golf Course, Suffern, New York. Any person or business interested in being a sponsor at this year's event please email Golf Committee Chairperson: Donald Diehl c/o IFOND@aol.com
