About the Immune Deficiency Foundation
In over 25 years of guiding the Immune Deficiency Foundation, our Board of Trustees has learned that continuity is one of the most important aspects of the services IDF provides to individuals with primary immune deficiencies. Why? Because primary immune deficiencies are chronic conditions - individuals and families need to know that our services will be available throughout their life. To ensure continuity, IDF has identified the most essential of our programs - our "Core Service." In order to offer this Core Service to patients and medical professionals, IDF relies on the generosity of various organizations for program funding. To recognize the organizations that support the Core Service Programs, IDF created the IDF Circle of Support. The Circle of Support consists of select organizations that support IDF at the highest level. According to Marcia Boyle, IDF Founder, "The organizations in the Circle make an enormous difference in IDF's ability to plan and act on behalf of people with primary immune deficiencies. With Core Services funding, we can do an even better job of improving patients' day-to-day health by promoting earlier diagnoses, greater awareness among physicians and insurance carriers, and a steady supply of medications. We can also work toward a more secure future by sponsoring new research, and advocating for public funding for that research. Circle of Support members help IDF provide long-term security for people with primary immune deficiency diseases." 2008 IDF CIRCLE OF SUPPORT
