Formas en las que puedes ayudar
Los avances en la investigación sobre los trastornos relacionados con el CASK, tanto en el Reino Unido como a nivel internacional, solo han sido posibles gracias al compromiso y la determinación de las familias afectadas.
Aproximadamente el 70 % de nuestra financiación se sustenta gracias a la recaudación de fondos de la comunidad: las familias que conviven con CASK, junto con su círculo más amplio de amigos, compañeros de trabajo y simpatizantes, todos ellos contribuyendo como pueden para mantener el impulso. Dado que las enfermedades CASK son extremadamente raras y aún no gozan de un amplio reconocimiento, la responsabilidad de dar a conocer estas enfermedades y recaudar fondos recae a menudo en quienes se ven más directamente afectados. Pero si no lo hacemos nosotros, ¿quién lo hará?
Sea cual sea la forma en que decidas colaborar
Birthday fundraiser
If you are on social media, the easiest way to raise money for CASK is to set up a Facebook fundraiser. Every year we receive hundreds of pounds from this easy, straightforward fundraiser. Open Facebook, start a new post, scroll along the top options (Music, Tag/Collaborate, etc.) until you can click "Fundraiser", select CASK Research Foundation, and write your heartfelt post.
Give whilst shopping
Easyfundraising offers a simple way to raise money without any extra cost. Sign up, select your chosen CASK charity, and shop online through the Easyfundraising website or app — a small donation is automatically made by the retailer each time you make a purchase. Over 7,000 participating brands; the app notifies you when a website you are browsing participates.

Hold an event
There are lots of ways to raise money for CASK. A cake sale at school or work, quiz nights, bingo nights, or non-uniform days at school are all great ways to raise money and spread awareness.

Organised challenges
We have partnered with Global Adventure Challenges, which organises adventure-based fundraising events. Adventures range from mountain trekking and long-distance cycle rides to sledding across the Arctic pulled by huskies. Take part in UK events like the Three Peaks Challenge or international trips such as climbing Kilimanjaro or trekking the Great Wall of China.

Set your own challenge
Many of our supporters do a sponsored event such as a marathon or swim — but anything is possible. We've had a gran do a wing walk for CASK and our ambassador Joanne push her daughter Alice around the London Marathon. Please get in touch if you decide to fundraise for us and we'll send you a free T-shirt.

Support a campaign
Supporting CASK Research involves both fundraising and raising awareness. Our year-round campaigns provide opportunities to do both — whether it's dedicating a dragonfly to a loved one, participating in CASK Awareness Month in July, or running a Facebook fundraiser, every little bit helps.

Corporate support
Some of our most valuable support has come through personal connections. Many organisations offer schemes that make giving simple and impactful — matched funding (where donations are doubled), paid volunteer days, or team fundraising challenges. It's always worth asking — speak to your friends, family and wider network to see if their employer offers any of these opportunities.
