The largest operating expense of the organization are the two-day biennial symposiums, held in even numbered years at locations in the United States. Also, an operating expense is incurred for the production and mailing of the bi-annual newsletters, two of which are distributed each year, one of which is mailed to all members. Other operating expenses are incurred for communications, legal, accounting, professional fees, and other expenses.

Please include a donation form that indicates how we should allocate your donation  and indicate if you would like your contribution to go toward the General Fund, the Research Fund, or the Million Dollar Bike Ride fund. If you have no preference, the default fund will be the Operating Fund.

Remember to check with the HR department of your employer to determine if they have a program to match your donation.  Also, don’t forget to reach out to your family and friends and encourage them to donate to the MSUD Family Support Group. Personalized letters are the most effective tool. You may want to include a picture of the individual affected by MSUD. See the sample letter to model your letter after if desired.

Thanks for your help in improving the lives of those with MSUD and working towards a cure.
