Mission Statement
To create the necessary conditions that build empowered, cared for and self-sufficient families affected by HD through alliances with their communities, and local and international partners and organizations, both private and public.
Description
Factor H is a not-for-profit humanitarian organization formed in 2012 and registered in the US in 2018 to increase awareness about people living with and affected by Huntington’s disease, and to facilitate humanitarian and medical aid to diminish the suffering of local communities in Latin America. We aim to build communities of cared for, resilient and self-sufficient HD families through alliances with local and international organizations. We envision a world in which families and communities impacted by Huntington’s Disease live in dignity, equality and prosperity, exercising their basic and fundamental rights, including their right to health and education.
