Our Mission Statement: 
 
Our Voices Heard
 

We are providing an outreach to raise awareness about the Hepatitis C Virus. 

 

By providing the materials necessary to give to those for Education, promoting Liver health and disease prevention along with advocating for all those infected by Hepatitis C.

We realize there will be many obstacles and challenges along the way but with your help we can make it through!

 
The Reason for this Foundation: 
 
Education is the Key
 
Many people living and working may not know they have hepatitis C, a disease that destroys the liver and even as we know it.
 
The Hepatitis C Virus infection persists in 85% of cases, and often has no symptoms until liver damage has occurred, many years after infection.

It too can cause cirrhosis, liver cancer and liver failure and it is responsible for 10,000 - 18,000 deaths per year.

HCV is spread through blood-to-blood contact only and we need to educate others that it's not by touch or a kiss. (If you had a blood transfusion between 1980-1990, get tested for the Hepatitis C virus.)

Frederick Maryland Hepatitis C Clinic is the very first clinic and is actually providing a model for how communities can respond to the challenge of HCV. In the end, HCV will be contained ONLY when people like you and me decide that WE CAN do something about it.

As you may not know it but 50 states are struggling with just how to go about treating HCV (Hepatitis C Virus) especially in the poor/working poor un-insured and under-insured who are most likely to get the HCV.

For every "One" with AIDS, their are 5 Hepatitis C cases and rising.
