The LAM Foundation Easy Breathers

The LAM Foundation Easy Breathers are cycling back for their 13th Million Dollar Bike Ride!  Your donation will directly benefit The LAM Foundation.

We share your dedication to catalyzing new treatments—and ultimately a cure—for lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) by advancing research, supporting compassionate care, and amplifying the voice of women with rare diseases. For LAM patients and their families, there is not a moment to spare.

The generous and longstanding support of our donor community has made The LAM Foundation a global leader in the fight against LAM. By carefully allocating donor funding, we have contributed to several major U.S. and global achievements:

• Nearly $37 million raised, with investments in education, patient support, awareness activities, and more than $19 million dedicated to research.

• 74+ member Global LAM Clinical & Research Network providing compassionate care to those living with LAM

• American Thoracic Society/Japanese Respiratory Society LAM Clinical Practice Guidelines to facilitate early diagnosis and improve patient care

• Identification of a LAM gene and understanding of the molecular pathway affected by LAM

• Discovery and development of VEGF-D as a powerful diagnostic biomarker that reduces the need for a surgical biopsy

• First FDA-approved treatment for LAM – sirolimus, authorized in more than 40 countries and widely prescribed

• Patient and care partner education through LAMposium in your Living Room webinars and the in-person International LAM Research Conference and LAMposiums

• Database of more than 4,500 patients, an estimated 6,500 in the Worldwide LAM Patient Coalition

• A community of hope and support through the LAM Liaison Network

Your donation has an immediate impact on the lives of individuals with LAM. Through education and support for LAM patients, innovative research, and patient advocacy, donors have been making The LAM Foundation’s mission a reality since 1995.
