#givingtuesday

December 1, Giving Tuesday, kicks-off the ultimate season of kindness, hope and caring for our global community. A donation to the Foundation is forever appreciated, but there are so many ways to give, big and small. We ask this year, a year that has brought such unprecedented challenges, that you join us, in any way you can, as we continue to give to those with GBS|CIDP and variant conditions such as MMN.

So MANY WAYS TO GIVE….

Gift of Listening

Join our international team of “points of contacts” – if you are a patient or caregiver with experience in the conditions that affect our community, join our team of local supporters and be the voice of comfort and guidance for those in your area. Contact kelly.mccoy@gbs-cidp.org, for more information.

Gift to Time

  • Greeting Card Alert Program! Volunteer to send a greeting card of encouragement to those who are newly diagnosed.

Gift of Awareness

  • Start an email campaign, or social media campaign, and ask friends to share awareness posts about GBS|CIDP or variant of the conditions. #gbscidp Share this educational video!
