In this season of giving, the Blue Ribbon Campaign for ME/CFS wants to show its support for the Whittemore Peterson Institute for its groundbreaking research linking XMRV (a retrovirus) to ME/CFS. You may have heard of this research recently on Dr. Oz.
We are doing this in two ways:
1) WPI is now the beneficiary on our Facebook Cause. Over the next few weeks we will be having a recruitment and donation drive. All donations will go to the WPI to help them break more ground in helping people with ME/CFS.
2) You can vote for the WPI to win a million dollars. Your vote could be worth $1 million for WPI! Please vote for up to 20 of your favorite non-profits to receive up to $1 million in the Chase Community Giving program.
The Blue Ribbon Campaign was started in April 2009 by an M.E./CFS
patient in Canada. The purpose of the campaign is to raise awareness of
a devastating disease known as Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME) and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS).
We are the little cause that could. There will also be a volunteer program starting up soon
