Seeking $25,000
for research
Dear Sigma Beta Sorority Chapter:
Establishing the
Sigma Beta Sorority
Chair of Research with The
Brain Aneurysm Foundation is a way to help fund critical
research that will contribute to a better understanding
of the pathophysiology of aneurysm formation, improve
early detection, provide better treatment modalities,
and generate technological advances that will ultimately
improve outcomes for patients with brain aneurysms. The
Sigma Beta Sorority
Chair of
Research will sponsor the research of two grant
recipients for a year.
Brain aneurysms are a silent killer because most show no
symptoms over time. Each year about 32,000 people will
suffer a ruptured brain aneurysm. Over half of the
victims will die and of those surviving only a third
will recover without disabilities. While the vast
majority of brain aneurysms occur in adults over 40,
they can also strike children and young adults, often
resulting in death.
Further research is
urgently needed. The
Sigma Beta Sorority Chair of
Research will provide a unique opportunity for the donor
to be involved in carefully selected research that will
improve early detection, treatment options, and new
technologies of brain aneurysms. Your donation of
$25,000 will help save lives. Researchers will
be honored knowing that the Sigma Beta Sorority
Chair of
Research selected them. Progress reports on all
investigations are provided semi-annually.
Thank you for your support of this vital
research. |
