I am excited to announce the Together Strong NPC Foundation will be accepting grant requests. The foundation was set up with three primary goals listed below:
1) NPC Science: Develop foundational science to benefit NPC patients; advance research and development projects that focus on discovery, identification of therapeutic targets, and improved diagnostics
2) Public Awareness and Advocacy: Enable stronger independent patient advocacy organizations focused on NPC: improve and advance their capabilities to execute their unique missions
3) Collaboration and Information Sharing: Foster international collaboration among scientists, clinicians and patient advocacy organizations to disseminate new information, treatment guidelines and clinical resources, and develop programs to train health professionals who treat NPC patients.
You can learn more and access the grant request process via the Together Strong website: www.ts-npc.org. The website provides an overview of the Foundation and links to their automated process for submitting a grant application.
For additional questions relating to Grant making goals please contact: Ellen Klein, President, TSNPC – ellen@ts-npc.org
The Together Strong-NPC Foundation looks forward to helping the community win the fight against NPC.
