Mission Statement
Our Mission: To cure Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, and to improve the quality of life of children and adults affected by these diseases.
Description
At the Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation, it is our passion to find a cure for Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, chronic digestive diseases that affect approximately 1.6 million Americans. It is our mission to make sure that those diagnosed and their families receive the information, education, support and resources to improve their quality of life. The Foundation is the leader in research, patient education, and support services for Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (which include both Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis). At least 83 cents of every dollar goes directly toward supporting our mission.
