We believe coming together as a group will not only help the members deal with sometimes difficult situations, but provide useful information to those who have dealt with and conquered those problems. It will also show the research community that many low vision and blind people with aniridia exist and need treatments, and research. After all, there is strength in numbers!

We understand not all people have time to volunteer. However, with a couple hours a week, it can really help. If you find that you can not volunteer your time, there are other ways to help like making a yearly or monthly donation (by check, credit card or monthly debit by clicking HERE) OR providing a personal contact name of your friend, colleague or family member’s business or foundation to contact for support, OR hosting a fundraising event (dinner party, cocktail, garage sale, ideas are endless)

WELCOME TO ANIRIDIA FOUNDATION INTERNATIONAL

Once your member form is processed, you will receive a membership packet with information, our brochures, your member ID and password for the online Members Only area, and the International Aniridia Medical Registry questionnaire. This registry questionnaire is very important to gaining data so that we can have researchers have something to study…only this way we will move towards a cure. Please participate in this Phase I project. For more information, see your newsletter, the website (www.aniridia.net) or call us at 901-448-2380.
