Creating a Future Without IBD
Fundraising for innovative research is one of the most essential drivers in accelerating progress toward better treatments and cures for IBD. The efforts of brilliant individuals and organizations across the globe are crucial. At Today’s Insights IBD, my goal is to bring these incredible initiatives into the spotlight and help expand their reach and impact.
As a resident of the Netherlands, I have compiled a list of both U.S. and Dutch nonprofit organizations dedicated to advancing research and supporting patients and families. Whether they’re funding cutting-edge studies or providing vital patient services, these organizations are making a true difference in the fight against IBD.
Your donation can fuel this progress. Every contribution, no matter the size, helps bring us one step closer to breakthroughs in treatments and ultimately, a cure.
Appreciation goes toward all organizations in this field, and this list may be adjusted over time to give awareness to the work of more.
