Rare Disease Day
We have created a video to celebrate Rare Disease Day on February 28th 2021. The video features many of our inspirational children and reminds us all that there is happiness, fun and hope even in the darkest times.
Please share our video and consider donating to the SGS Foundation this Rare Disease Day. We are raising funds to support research into SGS and the symptoms which can seriously impact the quality and length of life of children living with this life-limiting rare disease.
A Wonderful Life for Scarlet
This incredible film was accepted to Disorder: The Rare Disease Film Festival which will take place in New York, November 2020. It features Scarlet, a little girl with Schinzel-Giedion Syndrome. Thank you to her family for sharing this honest and personal glimpse into their daily lives.
“For us, the Schinzel-Giedion Syndrome Foundation means Hope.
Hope that we have a voice, Hope that the world will know our families and Hope that people are invested in our children’s futures.
The Foundation bridges the gap between families, researchers and medical professionals, for the benefit of children with Schinzel-Giedion Syndrome around the world.”
