CYSTINOSIS RESEARCH FOUNDATION
Formed in 2003, the Cystinosis Research Foundationโs (CRF) mission is to support bench, clinical and translational cystinosis research to find better treatments and a cure for cystinosis. Jeff and Nancy Stack are the parents of a child with a rare, metabolic disease called cystinosis. On the eve of their daughter Natalie's twelfth birthday, she made a wish that no child should ever have to make; "to have my disease go away forever". Her wish, scribbled on a napkin because she was embarrasse... d to say the wish out loud, catapulted the Stacks into action. They had to share her story and formed a non-profit foundation called the Cystinosis Research Foundation. Cystinosis is a rare, genetic, metabolic disease that slowly destroys every organ in the body, including the liver, kidneys, eyes, muscles, thyroid and brain. There is a medicine that prolongs the childrenโs lives, but there is no cure. Prior to the establishment of the CRF, cystinosis research studies were few and far between and cystinosis clinical research and multi-year research studies were rare. CRF has raised more than $25.8 million for research and fellowships in 12 different countries making CRF the largest fund provider of cystinosis research in the world. Every day, researchers around the globe are working to find a cure for cystinosis. The Cystinosis Research Foundation is grateful to all who have supported its efforts to make Natalieโs wish become a reality. If you would like to help in our quest to find a cure for cystinosis and give hope to the families living with this devastating disease
