100% of your Donation goes to finding a cure!
It was important to note that only volunteers operate Tyler’s Hope. We want our supporters to know that ALL of the contributions and money raised goes towards finding a cure rather than paying for salaries or overhead.
Our many successes have motivated our foundation to establish greater and more challenging goals. Through hard work, good friends, and human compassion we have been able to fund many researchers that have helped us answer many of the questions about Dystonia on our way to finding a cure. Many of the dollars raised have drawn in new researchers and PhDs to dedicate their lives to curing Dystonia. Our new initiative is to raise the 1 million dollars needed to partner on a drug discovery project that is the most exciting and opportunistic program to find a cure yet. I dream (and my kids HOPE) of the day in the future when our kids can take a pill to stop the symptoms of Dystonia. This is a great challenge but it is achievable! We have specific goals with clear plan to succeed. The money raised for drug research will be kept separate from the other funding we use to solve the problems that stand in the way of solving this problem called Dystonia.
Dystonia is a curable disorder. Although it is the most devastating disrupting and disorder I have ever encountered, research has determined both the gene and the protein responsible. This was accomplished with very little funding and over a relatively short period of time. While we can find a cure, I have to. With enough money we can continue to fund the research necessary to find a cure and bring the top researchers in the world together on a mission to cure Dystonia.
You can be a part in finding a cure for over 500,000 people in the United States alone? We need your help.
