Giving Tuesday 2018 is Just Around the Corner
/This Giving Tuesday, we hope you will consider making a donation to the Rare Genomics Institute (RG).
We were able to complete 62 projects which includes whole genome sequencing for over 180 individuals. Our latest Patient team called the Rare Genomics Task Force (RGTF), a consultation platform that allows patients to have their questions answered by experts for free, provided consultations for over 200 patients.
Here at RG, we’ve had a busy year! Our volunteers donated over 18,000 hours of their time to help rare disease patients. We want to keep our momentum rolling this year and in years to come. Since RG is completely volunteer-run, the only way we can do this is with a donation from you.
A donation to RG will help a rare disease patient in need. Our patients often have no other options for access to genetic sequencing which can reveal the cause of their disease as well as potential research avenues or treatments.
Thank you for your generous support,
Jimmy Lin, M.D., PhD, MHD
President/CEO, Rare Genomics Institute
