Products from Managing Page of "Scleroderma VOICE" Added to Resources Section of Our Web site

Managing Page from Scleroderma VOICE

In March we launched a new look to our member magazine, the "Scleroderma VOICE" and with it we added many new features, including a managing page. The purpose of this feature is to make you, our members and readers, aware of products that others have found helpful in managing their scleroderma.

Assistive Devices for Arthritis Sufferers

WebMD Logo

While the use of painkillers tends to grab most of the headlines when it comes to coping with arthritis, the use of assistive devices also plays an important role. These simple devices can improve your ability to walk, bathe, cook, clean, and get dressed with relative ease.

Create a CarePage, Benefit the Scleroderma Foundation

CarePages logo

As many of you know, our partnership with CarePages has afforded us the ability to offer you free scleroderma-branded Web sites so you can keep everyone updated on your child’s, family, or friend, or own personal medical care. It’s also a great way to report those many family happenings that make us smile!

Workplace Giving ...

... is an excellent way to support the Scleroderma Foundation's mission of support, education, and research!

United Way LogoCombined Federal Campaign LogoDoes your workplace participate in United Way? Are you a federal employee? Does your organization have its own workplace giving campaign? If your answer is yes to any of these questions, you can support the Scleroderma Foundation through easy payroll deductions.

You can help the fight against scleroderma by spreading the word about the Scleroderma Foundation among your colleagues. Let them know the Foundation is an option for their workplace giving donations.

It's the perfect time to get involved! Most workplace giving campaigns are launched in the fall, and take effect January 1.
