Federal Policy Announcements and Discussions about Funding Research
Dear Macular Degeneration Association Friends,
The recent federal policy announcements and discussions about funding research have raised questions from our donors about the potential impact on biomedical research. As these changes unfold, we are actively monitoring developments and assessing how they may affect the Macular Degeneration Association (MDA) and the broader field.
The Macular Degeneration Association has never relied on federal funding to advance our mission, this is made possible by the generosity of our donors. We remain focused on advancing treatments and cures for all stages of age-related macular degeneration.
Sincerely,
Lawrence Hoffheimer
Macular Degeneration Association
Chairman of the Board & President
