Our Shining Stars virtual tribute wall honours those who have been touched in some way by HD. Honourees include those who are living with HD, who are or have been an inspiration. Please see our Shining Stars on our Shining Stars Universe, Galaxy and and Solar System pages. The Shining Stars Universe can be started with a minimum donation of $10,000; the Shining Star Galaxy can be started with a minimum donation of $5,000 and the Solar System can be started with a minimum gift of $1,000. As the donations grow dedications can be moved to the next system. Thank you for thinking of honouring your loved one. The Huntington Society of Canada is pleased to honour your loved one this way.
FAMILY is at the heart of our COMMUNITY. Our families and volunteers tell a powerful story of caring people who pull together to improve the quality of life of Canadians impacted by HD. At the Huntington Society of Canada (HSC), we understand what you are going through, whether you have the disease yourself, are caring for someone with HD, are gene positive or are at-risk of inheriting HD. We are a not-for-profit charitable organization which raises funds to deliver counselling and other support services to individuals and families living with Huntington disease (HD). We fund peer reviewed medical research leading to treatments and we work with health and social services professionals to enable them to better serve people living with HD.
Dr. Tam Maiuri, HD researcher, HD family member (and musician and mom and baker but not a candlestick maker) thanks you for supporting research and services for families affected by Huntington disease (HD). THANK YOU.
