Whether you donate, fundraise, or spread the word — every contribution matters. Here is how you can help.
There are many challenges that the Jewish community has to grapple with, but SLC1A4 Deficiency doesn't have to be one of them.
Every contribution, at any level, supports our mission to understand, advocate for, and ultimately treat SLC1A4 Deficiency.
Your generosity helps sustain the advocacy and research effort and brings us closer to meaningful answers for affected families.
A significant gift at this level makes a meaningful difference to an initiative working toward advocacy and treatments for a devastating disease.
A transformative commitment that helps power the entire advocacy and research effort.
Donations to the SLC1A4 Initiative are collected through Boston Children's Hospital, a 501(c)(3) organization, and are tax-deductible in the United States to the extent permitted by law.
Many employers match charitable contributions dollar-for-dollar or more. Check with your HR department — your $180 donation could become $360 with no extra cost to you.
A Bar or Bat Mitzvah is an opportunity to embody Jewish values of tikkun olam — repairing the world. Dedicate your mitzvah project to helping children with SLC1A4 Deficiency.
Partner with your synagogue to host a dedicated fundraiser — a gala dinner, silent auction, or Shabbat appeal.
Create a personal fundraising page in memory of a loved one, to mark a birthday or anniversary, or simply because you care.
