Building a Strong Future for Nemaline Myopathy Research
The path to finding effective treatments for Nemaline Myopathy is a long-term journey that requires vision, commitment, and sustained investment. Pillars of Strength is a new multi-year pledge program created by A Foundation Building Strength (AFBS) to ensure the groundbreaking research we fund today continues to thrive for years to come.
This program invites individuals, families, and partners who believe in our mission to make a lasting impact by committing to support AFBS annually over a period of years. Together, these sustaining pledges provide the stability needed to plan boldly, invest strategically, and accelerate progress toward life-changing treatments.
Why Multi-Year Giving Matters
Transformative research such as developing gene therapies and conducting long-term natural history studies cannot be achieved one year at a time. Consistent, reliable funding allows AFBS and our scientific partners to plan for the full duration of these projects and maintain momentum without interruption.
By becoming a Pillar of Strength, your multi-year commitment helps to:
- Empower Bold Science: Enable ambitious, multi-year research projects that push the boundaries of what’s possible.
- Provide Critical Stability: Give researchers the security to focus fully on discovery, knowing their funding is dependable.
- Build a Lasting Legacy: Turn generosity into a long-term investment that drives steady, measurable progress.
