Project 8p Faster Campaign

Over 550 children with 8p throughout the world conquer daily challenges most of us take for granted, while averaging 125 hours of therapy and at least 1 doctor visit every month. Through Project 8p, these kids and their families know they’re not alone and they now have great hope knowing that the Project 8p team is working tirelessly on their behalf.

Donate with us : Together towards treatment

Your generous donations and support has a huge and direct impact on children with a rare orphan disease. How? By giving them the opportunity to find the right doctors and understand what to expect. By giving the researchers the knowledge to find treatment options. Some of our genes are missing, some are duplicated, and some are flipped around.

Raise awareness by posting online, tagging Project 8p and using hashtags: #8000stepsfor8p #project8p

Become a Global Difference Maker

Your gift supports children and adults from around the world who have been diagnosed with a rare and incurable chromosome 8p disorder.

Together Towards Treatment

Double the Gift

Many companies offer matching gift programs to their employees, which means they will match the donations made by their employees to eligible charitable organizations, like Project 8p. This is an amazing way to double your donations!

Volunteer grant programs are corporate giving programs in which companies provide monetary donations to organizations where employees volunteer regularly.

If you volunteer with us, it’s an easy way to provide us with additional financial support!

You may inquire with your employer’s HR or Benefits department about their matching gift program and ask for any relevant guidelines or forms. If they offer a matching gift program, they will typically require you to complete a form and submit it along with your donation receipt or any relevant documentation. 

You can also try searching for your employer’s name.

For questions regarding your company’s programs, please contact your employer’s HR or community giving department. Much of the necessary information is also available on your company intranet.

For questions regarding submitting a matching gift or volunteer grant request to us, please contact us at bina@project8p.org.

The Project 8p Foundation (Project 8p) was created in 2018 to:

  • Accelerate future treatments, not only for 8p, but potentially for other chromosome-wide diseases as well.
  • Lead with knowledge from patients. Currently, there is no cure for 8p disorders, nor is there a standard course of treatment.

The Project 8p Foundation (Project 8p) was created in 2018 to:

  • Raise transformative funding for pioneering scientific research into treatments for a complex, rare disease involving 250+ affected genes on the short arm of the 8 th chromosome (8p). Rearrangements of these genes causes significant abnormalities to the entire neurological system, thus all organs and functions of the body– with variance in cognitive functions, gross motor skills, social development and other challenges during infancy, and throughout life;
  • Empower a unified community of 8p patients and their families so they can have meaningful lives today; and
  • Accelerate future treatments, not only for 8p, but potentially for other chromosome-wide diseases as well.
