Thank you for helping us meet — and beat! — the $150,000 HOPE Challenge! It’s official: Challenge-eligible giving far exceeded the original $150,000 goal to raise more than $266,000! The Challenge total reflects all individual donations, private grants, and fundraising proceeds raised throughout 2017.

We are grateful for the enthusiasm and generosity of the APFED’s community of donors, fundraisers, and supporters. Together, we’re moving research forward through APFED’s HOPE on the Horizon Research Program.

Your help is getting us closer to treatments and cures for eosinophil-associated diseases (EADs). Thank YOU for your continued support and for being part of the answer to EADs!
