Today we welcome our newest volunteering and donation partner, the Arthritis Foundation. Erin and I were fortunate to attend the DC Chapter annual breakfast this AM, Commitment to a Cure…we learned so much about Arthritis and how pervasive it is as the leading disability in the U.S. now numbering over 46M patients, we were inspired by doctors and both young and old who are afflicted with this terrible disease. What is amazing is how many children are being affected now by Arthritis, once thought to be exclusive to our elder population. Some more facts about AF and how you can help:
The Arthritis Foundation is the only national not-for-profit organization that supports the more than 100 types of arthritis and related conditions. Founded in 1948, with headquarters in Atlanta, the Arthritis Foundation has multiple service points located throughout the country. The Arthritis Foundation is the largest private, not-for-profit contributor to arthritis research in the world, funding more than $380 million in research grants since 1948.
