​100% of your donation goes into an account that is dedicated solely to research and therapy development.

All operation expenses are covered by a separate account, with funding from other sources such as grants and private donors. Every single penny of your donation goes towards SDS research and therapy development. In addition, our leadership team works highly strategically to ensure that your donation leads to a much bigger impact — bigger than the amount of donation itself can fund.  How do we do that?  We use your donation to create preliminary results and use the results to get much bigger grants, from the government and/or private foundations. This will really supercharge our progress.  Further, our leadership team has the expertise to attract world-class partners to put up their own funding for our project — the mouse model project with The Jackson Laboratory being a prime example.
