Bcureful | Advancing Research & Awareness for Tuberous Sclerosis

WE DID IT!

Our greatest achievement to date

We are excited to announce that because of you, our donors, Bcureful has now funded the NORD Travel Fund for Tuberous Sclerosis families! This fund has been made possible through fundraisers and individual donations to Bcureful.

NORD’s Tuberous Sclerosis Complex Travel & Lodging Patient Assistance Program provides patients diagnosed with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (or under consideration for diagnosis) with financial assistance for travel and lodging related to participation in a clinical trial and or furtherance of treatment.

If you are in need of NORD’s assistance, or would like additional information, you can learn more HERE

Living with TSC is challenging, and you can continue to help families meet that challenge head-on by making a gift donation to Bcureful HERE, and designating it for the travel fund.

Thank you for your support in helping Bcureful achieve this amazing accomplishment!

“My journey with Bcureful started as a mom with a newly diagnosed child in an area where there is not TS related healthcare. Bcureful went above and beyond getting us the care that we needed and I am very grateful to be able to pay them back by serving on the board and helping other families like mine.”
