"Living with this disease
creates a special human being,
one infused with an uncommon valor in the face of overwhelming odds. Those odds are changing
for the better."

  • Memorial & Celebration Gifts
    You can create a living memorial in the name of a family member or friend, or a gift of celebration such as a birthday or wedding, through the HSF's Memorial & Celebration program. Your gift will show your loved ones how much you care while helping the HSF fund research to find a cure for HS. We'll send a personalized card to the person you designate to notify them of your donation (the amount of the gift will not be indicated). A suggested donation is $50 or more for each remembrance. You can make your donation by phone or by mail.
  • Gifts-In-Kind
    The HSF also accepts non-monetary items of tangible personal property or other physical assets that represent value to the HSF. Examples of such items include real estate, equipment, meals, and travel/ transportation/lodging certificates. If you believe you have a potential gift-in-kind, please contact us.
  • Shop Our Online Store
    Your thoughtful support will help us continue to run and develop important programs as well as serve the HS community. Shopping online is easy, and in doing so, a percentage of your purchases will be returned to the HSF. Truly, you understand our mission and our need for people just like you.
