Hello Friends!
I hope you are doing well! I'm writing to ask a favor of you as we enter into the holiday season.
The end of the year is important for many non-profits - many people choose this time of year to contribute to the organizations that they feel passionate about or that have made a difference in their lives. At NAFC, this time of year is important to us as well. We are a non-profit, committed to raising awareness of bladder and bowel health conditions, and providing education and support to those touched by incontinence. We receive much of our funding through donations, which is what allows us to keep our website updated and running, and to provide things like these message boards free to those who need them.
This holiday season we'd like to urge more people to contribute to NAFC by showing them the impact we make. It's hard sometimes to compete with organizations that are dealing with hunger, or fighting life-threatening diseases, but I'm sure that you all know better than anyone that incontinence, while not life-threatening, affects a person's quality of life more than most people realize. We hope that NAFC, and these message boards, help to provide you with some level of support and comfort as you navigate this path.
To help us out, would you be willing to share with us your thoughts for an article we are pulling together to publish in December? We'd like to hear from you in your own words the answer to the question: "What NAFC Means To Me". We won't use any names, and everything will be kept anonymous. But, we think that it's important for people to hear the struggles that you all go through, and the extent that NAFC has helped lessen those, even if it's just a little bit. Plus, by sharing your voice, you'll help us in our effort to reduce the stigma of this condition.
If you're up for it, please respond to this thread, or send a PM to me with your answer to the question: "What does NAFC mean to me?".
Thanks so much in advance for your participation!
Sincerely,
Sarah
National Association For Continence (NAFC)
