The NGLY1 Foundation | NGLY1.org is excited to announce our union with CDG CARE! CDG CARE is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit public charity that represents all Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation–of which N-glycanase deficiency (NGLY1) is considered a part. NGLY1.org has closely and successfully collaborated with CDG CARE for the past 6 years. There are currently 150 different types of Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation (CDGs) with very few numbers of patients each. However, collectively the number of patients affected by CDGs is significant and growing. By folding NGLY1.org into the portfolio of CDGs stewarded by CDG CARE, we will be leveraging economies of scale in order to do more in terms of research, awareness and support for the NGLY1 community as well as the greater CDG community. We believe that we are STRONGER TOGETHER. Any future contributions for NGLY1 research and/or support should be made out to CDG CARE with a note in the memo to designate those funds for NGLY1. We are hopeful that this is another big step toward treatments and cures for all!
