Special Announcment
THANK YOU!
 
With your generous support, the IWMF’s GivingTuesday Campaign raised over $40,000!
 
Together, we are changing the lives of people living with Waldenstrom’s macroglobulinemia and moving us closer to our vision of “A world without WM”.
Year End Giving Made Easy
As the 2022 holiday season is now in full gear, and we begin to think about a new year, it’s also the time when we at the IWMF hope you will consider a year end charitable gift.
 
There are so many ways to give back, including a gift now by calling the office (941) 927-4963, donating online at IWMF.com, or mailing a check. Individual Facebook fundraisers are an easy way to celebrate someone’s birthday or anniversary, or making a memorial or in honor of gifts to recognize and thank that special person are all great ways to support the IWMF.
 
Other options include gifts of stock or Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCD’s) and even a future gift, all made simple and FREE through our partnership with FreeWill.
 
It is the generous support of people living with WM, friends, family, and caregivers that make everything possible. For that we thank you.
 
For more information on year end giving opportunities, please contact Alix Redmonde at [email protected].
