Rare Disease Day: February 28, 2017

Please read the following two articles published recently about two of our ACDA families in connection with Rare Disease Day 2017:

Below are flyers for anyone to use at their workplace that encourages employees to donate $5 / £5 to the ACDA and wear jeans to work on February 28 as part of Rare Disease Day. Several of our ACDA families asked their workplaces and schools to join this effort to raise awareness of ACDMPV!

Please share your successful Rare Disease campaigns and activities with the ACDA by sending your stories or pictures to president@acdassociation.org. We look forward to hearing from you!

A letter to our followers on Rare Disease Day 2017:

What does it mean to be rare? In the case of ACDMPV, it means you are one of only a few hundred children worldwide formally diagnosed with ACDMPV since first identified in 1948. By contrast, the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) considers a disease rare if it has a prevalence of fewer than 200,000 affected individuals in the United States. Taking a moment to reflect on those numbers, you realize how rare ACDMPV is even within the subset of rare diseases. And yet, this very rare disease often feels a little less rare due to the compassion, generosity and support of our ACDA families and friends.

On this Rare Disease Day 2017, we are stopping to thank our ACDA families and friends for listening, learning, sharing and always remembering our children who are no longer with us or faced uncertain futures due to this very rare disease. We thank everyone who has ever ‘Liked’ our Facebook page, wore #JeansforGenes, donated funds for ACDMPV research, dressed in a shirt with the ACDA logo, organized a fundraiser, used the designated hashtags #RareDiseaseDay #WRDD2017 or shared an ACDA link. We also thank anyone who has ever sent a hug or love on those difficult days, spoken our child’s name on an ongoing basis, held our hand through an anxious rainbow pregnancy or any of the other innumerable ways you have shown your support. Our list could go on forever in so many ways.

If there is one glimmer of light in the reason that unfortunately brought all of us together, it is that the ACDA community itself is also rare. Not just because of the statistical numbers, but because our ACDA families and friends are unusually remarkable.

“Hi all! The ACDA asked me to launch the Giving Bean fundraiser… I’m so excited to share with you this fundraising opportunity for those of us who live in the United States. We hope to include our international families in the future if Giving Bean expands to ship internationally (they assured me they will be working on it).

•All coffee is roasted-to-order and arrives fresh, assuring its great taste.
•Prices are $12 per bag of coffee and tea, comparable to other high quality coffees and teas. We will earn 25% for every item sold!
•Included in the package will be a paper stating, “Thank you for supporting the Alveolar Capillary Dysplasia Association.”

Launch

  Posted on by acdassociation

We have a new look! We are pleased to announce the following changes being launched today:

1.  Logo – The ACDA has an official new logo (see it at the top of this page!)
2.  Website – The ACDA website has a brand new look with lots of new features!
3.  Newsletter – The newsletter has been redesigned and streamlined!
4.  Store – A new store with the ACDA logo on your favorite products with a designated portion of the proceeds benefiting the ACDA!

Today marks the official unveiling of all the efforts by the ACDA over the past year to implement design changes and present the most current information available to our registered families and the public. The ACDA began in 1996 and we are so excited to enter our 20th anniversary year in 2016 with our new look. Please read more detailed information about the changes below. We hope you will spend some time exploring and sharing our redesign!

The ACDA website has been *completely* overhauled to reflect our new look and provide the most up to date content. Most importantly, please note the change to our website address, which will be our permanent home going forward. Please update your bookmarks accordingly: http://acdassociation.org

The website has been carefully crafted to be a one stop portal for anything and everything related to ACDMPV. We not only wanted to provide current genetic and research information but also grief resources and community resources. Essentially anything related to ACDMPV has been consolidated into one location with easy to navigate menus. We hope you will visit the new website and share it far and wide with your friends and family.

Below is a brief summary of the website redesign:

  • New design – Fresh new look optimized for both desktop and mobile platforms.
  • Information – All content is now the most up to date information available, including genetics, research, FAQs, etc. We also added numerous new pages, such as a summary of NORD grants, maps, history of the ACDA, links for medical professionals, etc.
  • Donate – The donation page is easier to navigate and includes instructions on how to donate directly to either the ACDA or the NORD Research Fund (ACD).
  • Social Media – Our Twitter and Facebook feeds are now linked directly to our website, along with the ability for visitors to share our content through social media services.
  • Grief resources – Recommended support groups, book lists, song lists and links to personal blogs written directly by ACDMPV parents.
  • Community resources – Links to every newspaper, magazine or blog article written about families affected by ACDMPV.
  • Fundraisers – Summaries of current and completed fundraisers organized by ACDA families. Please contact us at secretary@acdassociation.org if you would like us to add a description of your fundraiser benefiting ACDMPV research.
  • Store – An easy to use store with the ACDA logo on your favorite products with a designated portion of the proceeds going to the ACDA. Ships internationally to many countries!
