The Kenney Family Foundation and the Tick Information Center have joined forces this year to raise funds for ultimate goal of aiding the Lyme disease crisis.

Our mission is to benefit the Lyme community, through research, education, awareness and support. This year’s beneficiaries include the following organizations:

RESEARCH

LymeMD, a 501 (c) 3 non-profit organization, created in 2007 by Dr. John Aucott, in response to the devastating toll that Lyme disease takes on previously healthy, energetic individuals. LymeMD has become a nationally recognized program attracting top collaborators around the country.

Bridging Research and Medical Care

• Accelerating research that brings the finest tools of scientific research to patient care.
• Educating physicians and the public about Lyme disease.
• Developing academically affiliated Lyme disease research clinics in communities where Lyme disease care is delivered.
• Creating a clinical database and conducting research by examining patients’ initial diagnosis and treatment of Lyme disease in the community practice of medicine.
