PURA Foundation Australia
When we all work together, anything is possible.
The PURA Foundation Australia is the only non-profit charity that has been established for individuals with PURA syndrome and their families, across Australia and New Zealand. We assist the PURA syndrome community by supporting and initiating research, raising awareness, and providing education.
This community provides a place of belonging to those who may otherwise feel isolated by rare disease, enriches the medical research being completed and educates those outside the community about the condition.
Goals:
-
To facilitate education and awareness of PURA syndrome.
-
To assist in the advancement of research and treatments for PURA syndrome.
-
To provide support for families of, and individuals with, PURA syndrome.
To assist us with our goals and our mission, please consider a donation to the PURA Foundation Australia today.
