We help people through empowerment and encouraging individual self advocacy. Also, we work hard to connect people with tick borne diseases to resources. We are raising money to help pay for testing and treatment while utilizing the resources available in the community and privately to help families. All of our work is donated by dedicated volunteers.

We are tax-exempt without a determination letter from the IRS because we have the 501 c 3 language in our Articles of Incorporation and according to the IRS, are able to issue tax-deductibible receipts.
