Umaima Khan's Fundraiser for Scleroderma United

Why I'm Fundraising: Volunteering for this campaign is a meaningful way to contribute to a cause that holds true importance. The resilience and strength displayed by individuals facing scleroderma inspire me to become actively involved and make a positive impact.

My interest in this community is fueled by a sincere desire to assist those affected by this disease. Through volunteering, my goal is to raise awareness and vital resources to support research and patient care. I invite you to join me in this endeavor to enhance the lives of those battling scleroderma. Together, we can work towards a brighter future for them.
