How
Can I Get Involved?
This is a commonly asked question -- below are several
practical answers. We're always finding new ways to get
people involved, for more volunteer opportunities. Look at the
links and see what areas might interest you or donate to research.
Join us
in Southeast Michigan
and The Amster Lupus Research Fund and
Friends of Amster Fund in
raising much needed funds for lupus research at the University of Michigan Hospital.
This research has created jobs in the area of lupus research,
raised awareness, found better treatment options, is testing new
promising treatments, finding possible ways to cure lupus and has enabled the Lupus Research Clinic to
exist with many participants. We are on the front line and it
needs your support. If you can only afford to donate a dollar or
$100 please do it. Do it for that someone who you
know has lupus, yourself or in memory of someone you know has
lupus or lost due to
lupus complications.
You can also make an annual contribution or set up a trust
or foundation in your family or business' name. Have your own
neighborhood or community fund raising event, luncheon, fashion
show, marathon, swim event or cocktail party.
Please help those you love find a better way to treat and
eventually cure this debilitating disease !!!! 100 % of all funds
raised go to research. I am a participant in many studies and have
been involved in drug trials. I encourage all patients to do the
same. Ask your Dr. how you can participate or call U of M to see
what studies are available. You may also inquire about setting up
your own self directed foundation through U of M gifting program.
