The work of M4RD relies on the generous contributions of sponsors.

In 2013, Students4RareDiseases (our original name) was grateful to receive funding from Sanofi Genzyme by working with The UK LSD Collaborative. They received the PAL Award for the project “Hear hooves…Think Zebra” and thanks to this award we transformed a small student society into a national organisation.

Since then different parts of the project have received sponsorship from different companies. We are currently working on our 2020 campaign – our first as a UK Registered Charity. You can look forward our annual symposium, The Unusual Suspects, and to new projects that we have in the pipe-line. This campaign has been sponsored by Alexion, Sanofi Genzyme and Sobi. 

We would like to thank all our sponsors and donors for their generous support. Rather than targeting resources on one specific disease they understand that one part of achieving earlier diagnoses is by breaking down the stigma of rare diseases in healthcare. The work of M4RD will benefit all rare diseases.
