What if the entire world came together to give?

Imagine what we could do!

In response to the new opportunities and hope from the Community Symposium, anonymous donors have stepped forward to encourage everyone to contribute at this critical stage in ME / CFS research.

Every day between now and International Giving Tuesday is TRIPLE TUESDAY OMF.

This year we have the good fortune to accelerate research with an unprecedented matching gift opportunity for Triple Tuesday! Several anonymous donors were inspired by the recent Working Group Meetings and Community Symposium on the Molecular Basis of ME / CFS at Stanford University, sponsored by OMF.

Make Your Donation Go Farther

Our generous matching donors will triple every dollar you donate. So your $10 donation will be tripled to $30; $100 to $300; and $1,000 to $3,000. Your donation, of any amount, will help OMF reach our goal.  HELP US KEEP THIS MOMENTUM GROWING TO ACCELERATE RESEARCH AND RAISE OVER $1 MILLION FOR RESEARCH! #TRIPLETUESDAYOMF
