You can Make a Difference

Host A Fundraiser for The SPATA Foundation

One penny or one thousand dollars, each cent makes a difference.

Step 1: Brainstorm an Idea

Start by thinking about what kind of fundraiser feels fun and meaningful for you and your community. Consider activities you enjoy, whether it’s a virtual challenge, a bake sale, a local event, or a creative twist on something familiar. It could be as simple as asking a local restaurant to host a Give Back night. Check out NORD's list of ideas.

Note: For RAFFLE fundraisers specifically, some states have rules against this type of fundraiser.

Check below for more resources.

Past Fundraisers

Rare diseases are often overlooked when it comes to research and funding due to the small populations they serve. This means advocating for research and funding this research falls to the duty of the rare disease families and organizations.

We can't find a cure without your help. We will need MILLIONS of dollars, your VOICE, and your PARTICIPATION in research.
