Every superhero needs a sidekick. Someone who will fight by their side and give them a boost of encouragement when they need it the most. Someone who is reliable and committed to achieving the mission. Someone who believes that if we join forces, we’ll be unstoppable.

You see, our superheroes are up against a ruthless villain. KIF1A Associated Neurological Disorder robs our superheroes of their ability to walk, talk, see—sometimes even eat or breathe. But we have hope because of people like YOU. Life-changing and life-saving treatments are within reach, but we can’t accomplish our mission alone.

Do you believe in creating a brighter future for our superheroes? Join KIF1A.ORG’s League of Sidekicks by becoming a monthly donor.
