A MESSAGE FROM Steve’s CMV NYC Marathon Fundraising
Thank
you for your donation to the National CMV Foundation, Inc. We are a non-profit
organization dedicated to promoting awareness, providing access to resources,
and sharing prevention information to eliminate congenital cytomegalovirus
(CMV).
CMV is
the most common congenital viral infection in the United States, affecting
30,000+ newborns per year, yet, only 9% of people know about it. If given
proper education from the medical community before or during pregnancy, women
can be empowered to make informed decisions about their heath and their baby’s
future. Your gift is extremely important to us and will offer immediate
resources that are directed to awareness campaigns and pediatric research
opportunities. These resources will impact the public health services urgently
needed in our communities.
