Fundraiser

Current Fundraiser

Every year, high school students in GIDAS vote on diseases of their choice, set up projects to raise awareness locally, and raise microgrants funds for research on the chosen diseases. If you are interested in getting funding for your own research, please visit this link.

This year’s focus: Neurodegenerative Disorder

High school students are fundraising for Frontotemporal Dementia research

It is difficult to get government funding for innovative research due to the lack of supporting data. We provide microgrants so that an innovative researcher can obtain initial data. Your donation will help advance frontotemporal dementia research by providing much needed funding.
