Supporting the Huntington's Disease Center at Penn
Here at Penn, our top priority is the well-being of our patients.
Our multidisciplinary team of providers strives to improve the quality of life of people living with Huntington's disease, those who are at risk, and their families.
The programs of the Penn Huntington’s Disease Center depend upon your support. Philanthropy helps provide essential resources advancing the Center’s mission to improve the lives of individuals living with HD and accelerate the discovery of new therapies. Your gift will fuel innovative research, ensure that patients receive cutting-edge personalized care, and help our center fight Huntington’s disease. The work for our patients goes beyond the walls of the HD Center at Penn but to communities all around where we collaborate with a diverse group of scientists to advance our knowledge about Huntington's disease towards the shared goal of a cure.
Partner with us and help advance patient care and research by making a gift today!
