Putting Scleroderma on the Map

When the Scleroderma Research Foundation was established in 1986, very few people, including many in the medical field, had ever heard the word “scleroderma.”

Today, almost two decades later, scleroderma is still not a household name; but through the efforts of SRF’s world-renowned researchers and scientific advisors, star-studded events, nationwide media coverage, government affairs, and a unique Cure Advocate volunteer program, scleroderma is growing in recognition.

Every time the word “scleroderma” is mentioned – in a conversation or in a letter, on television or in a newspaper, on the Internet or at an event – we are one step closer to building awareness of this unfamiliar disease that is taking the lives of too many Americans.

With your help, SRF will continue to increase global awareness and raise the critical funds necessary to win the battle against scleroderma.
