ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµGiving Day – Let’s make konzo disappear

A record number of students, staff, alumni and friends raised over $85,000 through the ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµGiving Day appeal to help prevent the disease konzo.

All funds raised directly support educational programs run in partnership with the National Institute of Nutrition in the Democratic Republic of Congo to teach villagers Dr Bradbury's affordable "wetting method". Dr Colin Taylor, Director of Principal Gifts, said that the ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµGiving Day shows the power of the ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµcommunity: "It was wonderful to see so many members of the ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµcommunity come together to support ÃÛÌÒÊÓÆµresearch that has a global impact."
