Eight-year-old Adele’s fever and sore neck became a life-threatening battle with invasive Strep A. She spent multiple days in ICU, underwent two surgeries, was intubated to help her breathe, and needed months of IV antibiotics to recover. No child should have to go through this. Strep A kills more than 500,000 people every year - many of them children. But our researchers are on the cusp of a breakthrough. With your support, we can develop a vaccine for Strep A and continue our vital work in areas like childhood cancer, diabetes, allergies and more. With just five days until EOFY, now is the time to make your tax-deductible donation and power our next discovery. Think of the kids. Donate now: https://the-kids-eofy-2025.raiselysite.com/ (fb)
