Why should you care about making a donation? It could be to support: Performing Arts; Health Care; Medical Research; Medical Technology; Fellowships; Public and Patient Information; or, Continuing Education If I told you that organizations I’ve led have awarded individual grants ranging from $500 to $1,000,000 – would that make you excited to support one of them? Would it matter that individuals at 26 institutions were chosen as recipients this year? Impressive – maybe. But what does this tell you about the difference your donation will make? Ask me about what it takes to tell a story that inspires donors to make a contribution.

How would you live your life differently if you knew it was only a matter of time before you went completely deaf and blind? For many, living with Usher syndrome means living with a sense of urgency to experience as much as you possibly can with the vision and hearing you still have, while also recognizing that every second has the potential to bring us closer to finding treatment to stop further progression and even towards finding a cure. Rebecca Alexander, the face of the Every Second Counts campaign, is the embodiment of this sentiment. She reminds us that we can live deeply meaningful lives while losing two vital senses AND keep advocating and fundraising for research and treatments. How can you help? ⬇ 1. Raise Awareness - Get the word out and amplify the voices of those living with the condition and sharing their lived experiences. 2. Donate - All donations to the Usher Syndrome Society go directly to research projects around the world seeking treatments and a cure for Usher Syndrome. Help us make Every Second Count: https://lnkd.in/eVEeQu4F A huge THANK YOU to the Endeavor5 team and Ryan S. Porush, who dedicated their time, expertise, and enthusiasm to the creation of this remarkable film. [VD: A 30 second commercial starring a woman, Rebecca Alexander. The commercial shows the woman waking up, putting on her cochlear implants, using a cane in the streets of New York, taking the subway, working out at the gym, and getting her eyes examined. The video zooms to a close up image of her eye at the end and white text says “When You are Living with Usher syndrome. Every Second Counts. You Can Help: https://lnkd.in/eacyRHyz” with the Usher Syndrome Society Logo” #EverySecondCounts #UsherSyndrome #USH #DeafBlind #RareDisease #Awareness #Commercial #Nonprofit #Help #Support #Donate #Research

Investment in education is investment in the future of generations ahead. Imagine all the students that will now choose a specialty that they are passionate about and where they can have the most impact, instead of choosing a specialty that can pay off their massive educational debt.

🔬Your donations enable us to support promising research, such as Dr. Arielle Elkrief's work, a medical oncologist, but also a scientist. “Research is hope! I want to be able to offer the best to those I care for, to find the answers we do not yet have the answers to, and long-term solutions to save more lives.” 🦋Thank you for donating today: https://loom.ly/T7gH3CY #CancerResearchSociety

The 2024 US Inventor Conference, "From Dreamers to Decision Makers," is a crucial gathering for inventors navigating today's challenging patent landscape. Unfortunately, many of these brilliant minds face financial barriers that prevent them from attending.

Together, we can empower inventors with the knowledge, connections, and resources needed to thrive in a system that often works against them. This is the year we take control of our destinies and shape the future of innovation. Donate today and help shape a brighter tomorrow for inventors across the nation. https://lnkd.in/g-XmsMKd
