Only 5% of Rare Diseases Have Access to an FDA-Approved Treatment. We’re Lifting to Change That, But We Need Your Help!

Gywnedd Mercy: Sports Management is proud to partner and join Team UA in support of Uplifting Athletes.

Uplifting Athletes is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that harnesses the power of sport to build community and invest in the lives of those impacted by rare disease.

Team UA is Uplifting Athletes’ signature fundraising and advocacy initiative — powered by student-athletes at colleges and universities across the country, as well as select high school and youth sports programs. The challenges faced by the rare disease community are bigger than any one individual, team, or organization can tackle alone.

Our class at Gywnedd Mercy University takes pride in this opportunity to shine a spotlight on rare diseases and support Uplifting Athletes—so that no person feels alone in their fight.

Supporting our Team UA page is simple! Fans can make a contribution to support our teams efforts this season.

Thank you for standing with us and supporting the rare disease community.
