Donations

Your support allows the WDA to maintain this website, produce educational materials, support research, and hold meetings for people living with WD, their families, and the healthcare community.

Donate by credit card or E-check

This is an easy, safe way to donate that records your donation in our database instantly and sends a confirmation. You can make memorials or give a tribute to someone to honor them. There are limitations to our system. We record each donation and assign it to one donor. It does not send out letters or emails to multiple donors for one donation.

Donate Securities

The process is to complete the form and return it to info@wilsonsdisease.org AND also call their broker to initiate the gifting process.  The form is used by the Wilson Disease Association records department so we can match it to what comes in.  Your broker will have you create a charitable gifting transfer form.

Check with the person that prepares your taxes.  This may be an extremely beneficial way to donate at a current value of your stock for a deduction of current value even though you acquired it at a much lower price.

Peer to Peer Fundraiser

Starting a fundraiser is easy to do, and it’s fun. We’ll even give you all the tools you’ll need to make a difference. With your help we can ensure critical steps of our 5 year plan get completed. This fundraiser requires no parties, walks or selling anything. You just send it out to people that you know.

Final Gift Plan

Consider WDA in a “Will” or Final Gift Plan
The Wilson Disease Association is 35 years old and is represented by board members from across the country and Canada. We have volunteers and partners globally and spearhead research that impacts our patients directly but affects a broader population beyond our patients. The long term importance of what the Wilson Disease Association does is limited only to the imagination because it affects generations of families around the world. Please consider the Wilson Disease Association in your will. Giving in this way is not restricted to the wealthy or a gender.

Corporate Matches

Let us help you find employers and corporate donors to match your donation.
As a benefit to employees, many companies increase the impact of their employees’ gifts to WDA by providing matching contributions. Most corporations provide a 1:1 match; while some companies will double or even triple the matching amount to further encourage and leverage their employees’ philanthropy.

Facebook Fundraiser

Start your own fundraiser on Facebook
If you are a Facebook User it is easy to have a fundraiser. The Wilson Disease Association is registered with Facebook and any user can set up a fundraiser in minutes and then share it with their friends. Please tell us if you do this because Facebook keeps these fundraisers anonymous and doesn’t tell us. They send the money donated about three months after the fundraiser is over.

Get Involved and Support the Cause!

The WDA provides a caring community that will offer each Wilson disease family information, guidance and emotional support. We are dedicated to education, advancing treatments, and finding a cure for Wilson disease. We are here to help, and you can contact us at any time. We know from our own experience what a difference being in touch with other individuals can make to each affected family. Our desire is that you will realize the impact Wilson disease can have on you and in your family.

We are not only active volunteers and believers in the programs of this organization; we are families of someone affected by Wilson disease. The WDA is much more than a website, we are a community of parents, grandparents, wives, husbands, sons, daughters, affected individuals, and extended families.

When you contact us, we will put you in touch with someone from our team who understands what you are going through. With your permission, this person will keep in regular contact with you, either by phone or email. Your WDA support volunteer will introduce you to the many different ways we can help, to the information that is available, to any special events being organized for families and to the larger WDA ‘family’.
