International Society for Mannosidosis & Related Diseases

you can help ISMRD through a donation.  Since ISMRD does not require membership dues, we must rely solely on the volunteer support of the world community that we serve.  ISMRD is a U.S. charitable 501 c3 organization; thus, contributions are usually tax-deductible in the United States and in countries that allow this.  Please check your own nation's guidelines regarding this matter.

Donations received by the public can be specified to be used in a number of ways, including:

• Pathways, our free, informative quarterly newsletter providing support regardless of national origin.
• Outreach to the public and professional community through our website, informational brochures and direct contact with scientists, clinicians and other Lysosomal Disease organizations.
• Promotion of research opportunities that one day will result in effective therapies for all Oligosaccharide Diseases.  You may specify a particular disease for this purpose, or ask that we use it for research affecting all of them.
• Let ISMRD allocate your donation to any number of important aspects of our mission.
