Turkey Day Update!
Much has happened since the last Dupuytren Foundation report in July. The International Dupuytren Data Bank (IDDB) averages 100 new enrollees each month. We’re continuing to work out the complicated details of blood testing. If you haven’t enrolled yet, now is the time: http://DupStudy.com.
Our international research committee continues to grow. So does awareness of the importance of research for a cure. https://dupuytrens.org/research-committee.
We are a nonprofit public charity. Our only agenda is to advocate for those affected by Dupuytren disease and related conditions. We believe the best advocacy is to find a cure. Read the latest Dupuytren Foundation President’s report on how we’re doing this:

It’s an interesting story – and it’s your story. It’s a team effort, and you are on the team.
Our Fundraising goal for the year is $200K to be able to begin IDDB blood collection. This needs your continued support, in addition to grant support from family and corporate foundations. Support this research with a charitable gift:

That’s it! I’ll keep it short. Read the president’s report for more details.
I’m very grateful for your trust and support of Dupuytren Foundation research for a cure. Let’s continue to work together for a future without Dupuytren disease.
I wish you health and happiness, and if you’re in the US, a very enjoyable Thanksgiving!
