We Need Your Help to give people with PWS A Full Life Without Limits

Make a Difference!

On October 5th and 6th, TeamPWCF will be walking, running, and biking to raise awareness and funds to benefit PRADER-WILLI CALIFORNIA FOUNDATION.

Thanks to your support, PWCF has been serving individuals living with Prader-Willi Syndrome, their families, caretakers, and providers with information, support, and advocacy since 1979 and with your continued support we can continue to do so for many years to come.

• What do parents do when they have a child with Prader-Willi syndrome, a disorder few people have ever heard of?
• What do they do when the doctor says their newborn doesn't need growth hormone yet, that they should "wait and see", when they know sooner is better?
• What does a parent do when the hospital won't listen to them because their child isn't presenting as seriously ill, but they know something isn't right?
• What does a parent do when their child's teacher keeps using food in the classroom?
• What does a parent do when Regional Center says their child has graduated from the early intervention program and eligibility is being terminated?
• What does a parent do when they need to apply for IHSS or SSI?

The answer to all these questions (and more) is that they call Prader-Willi California Foundation. PWCF helps advocate for appropriate services and support in all of these instances. This is just part of the work we do to support families who have a loved one with Prader-Willi syndrome. Your support allows us to continue this invaluable work.

We are the only organization in California exclusively serving the PWS community.

Starting a fundraiser is easy to do, and it's fun. You'll be surprised at how much you can raise, just by asking people to support you. We'll even give you all the tools you'll need to make a difference. With your help we can continue to work toward our vision of A Full Life Without Limits.
