Fundraise for Angelman Strong

Funds raised through Angelman Strong Events support critical Angelman research and family support programs that improve the lives of people with Angelman syndrome.

ASF Funded Research has led to therapeutics that are currently in clinical trials. Our family support programs are a life-line for families in finding specialized healthcare, providing funding for therapies, and connecting them with a supportive community that understands their journey.

See our participant toolbox for fundraising & awareness tools. Your efforts will make a lasting impact!
