The Support of Our Generous Contributors

     We are deeply grateful to the many people and organizations who support our educational and research projects. Some of them, with their permission, are listed here.
     Our Angels are very generous people and organizations who donate time and/or money on a regular basis and often step up to help in specific situations without being requested to do so. We extend to them a sincere thank you and a great deal of gratitude. Our Affiliates do periodic donations from the sales of their fibromyalgia related products. Our Group Associates are the Support/Recovery Group leaders who have hosted seminars and produced educational functions for the benefit of the Research Fund, and our Friends have given a single donation up to $500.00
     You can help support fibromyalgia research by purchasing products from these companies, by hosting a seminar, or by doing planned, periodic contributions. If you are a group leader and would like to host a seminar, please contact Claudia Marek at fmsnurse@aol.com or (310) 577-7510.
