More News
The KDA has provided over $3,000,000 for KD research to find a cure. However, we still have miles to go. Scientific research is expensive, and we need to increase our fundraising. To do this, we need your help. We’re not asking for money. What we really need is your time and effort. If you have a couple of hours a month we urge you to volunteer. To volunteer, please contact us.
