Overview
When you make a donation to the American Federation for Aging Research (AFAR), you are supporting scientists who are working to find the causes, treatments and cures for age-related diseases and conditions.
Private philanthropy is essential to our work. Your contribution can help to jump start the career of a scientist who might be the one to discover the therapy that can help us to better understand Alzheimer’s disease, rehabilitate aging bones and joints, or even cure cancer. Individuals have made and will always make a difference in scientific breakthroughs. We appreciate and look forward to your support.
