"Click Here" -- Ideas for donating directly to ARVD/C research

Dear Friends:

ARVD/C research and that which it can accomplish relies upon the support of many people. While patients and their family members may support research by participating in research projects, everyone may support ARVD/C research by donating financial gifts to those who are directly researching this disease.

Applying for research grants is painstaking, time consuming work. Even after going through the effort to apply for a grant, a project may still not receive one. The whole process can take a great deal of a researcher's time and energy. As you can imagine, this can be very frustrating to those who are willing to do a major research task. They may be willing to research, but may require funding to move forward.

Ideas for gifting directly to ARVD/C research:
Over the last number of years, the following research doctors and/or groups have gained respect for their diligent work and accomplishments. They apply their expertise in studies. They collaborate with other ARVD expert doctor/researchers. They and/or their teams directly help to answer the questions of people who have been affected by ARVD/C (one on one) and/or indirectly (by teaching others or producing informational papers.) They proliferate information. They are increasing the awareness of ARVD/C in the medical community and, in many cases, they are doing this nationally and internationally. Their research is expanding the body of knowledge about ARVD/C. Their work has saved, improved the quality of, safeguarded, and extended lives.
