Everything we do, we can do because of YOU. Since our launch in 2003, we have invested over $20M into groundbreaking research. Nearly every dollar has come from affected families and their networks of relatives, friends, colleagues and neighbors. Do you want treatments, and a cure, for PWS? If so, we invite you to join Team FPWR and to play a vital role by fundraising for PWS research.

Take ACTION while doing what you LOVE.

What do you love to do? Run, cook, host parties, play music?

Fundraising for PWS research is all about the love. Just pick an activity you love — and we'll turn it into a fundraiser that helps our loved ones with PWS and SYS through life-changing research.

Run a race. Host a chili cook-off. Throw a kickball tournament. Dedicate a birthday, climb a mountain or sing 80's rock ballads for donations. Whatever your idea is, everything you need is here! 

With the support of thousands of donors and fundraisers, FPWR has invested millions of dollars into critical PWS research. We've energized the field of PWS research, developed tools that have been used in labs around the world, and have attracted nearly a dozen PWS clinical trials. We have much to be proud of in our accomplishments but much work left to do. Until treatments have been found that eliminate the challenges of PWS, we must continue on.

Our work is only made possible by the incredible movers and shakers who take action for PWS research. When you fundraise for FPWR, your dollars:

• Support innovative gene therapy research
• Investigate novel PWS treatments
• Improve clinical trial measures
• Generate critical knowledge of PWS
• Develop new therapeutic approaches
• Repurpose existing drugs for use in PWS
• Improve standards of care for people with PWS
• Develop resources that facilitate FDA review of new treatments for PWS
• And more!

Our motto at FPWR is to work smarter, not harder, so we have created a number of resources to help make fundraising easy! Visit our toolkit and get started today!
