The Axenfeld-Rieger Foundation is on a mission to advance research and support patients with Axenfeld-Rieger Syndrome. We need your help to grow and improve!
Your assistance – no matter how big or small – will help us to provide better resources for families, secure more funding for important research, and more!
Not only is volunteering a fun way to make a real difference to our community, but it will also help you to develop new and existing skills.
You can volunteer from anywhere in the world – everything is done online.
Think about your skills, interests, and abilities. How can they help us to be more effective in our mission?
