Donate to Support Our Fighters

“Slaying The Fibrolamellar Beast Together”

Throughout our son Robert’s entire life his kindness and empathy for others shined. During his illness, his compassion only grew. Robert held a soft spot and an aching in his heart for the homeless. On countless trips to UCLA to receive one type of treatment or procedure, he would share the little money he had with the homeless he may encounter. He would always keep one or two five-dollar bills or Subway gift cards in his wallet. In this spirit, we ask you to donate what you can in order to benefit all our FibroFighters!

The above list provides a sample of ways personal information may be collected by the FibroFighters Foundation (FF). From time to time, we may collect personal information from you in ways not described above. 

FF restricts access to personal information to those employees who need to know that personal information to provide our services to you. 

Use and Disclosure of Personal Information 

FF respects and values the trust you place in us when you give us your personal information and is committed to maintaining the confidentiality of our donors’ personal information. 

  • We will not trade, share, or sell a donor’s personal information, collected on the website or through any business activities, with anyone else, except under the following circumstances. Donors can opt to be anonymous if they do not wish to have their information shared. 
  • Contact information for donors is shared with the fundholder for stewardship purposes.

  • Donor names may be featured in recognition lists with other donors at their associated giving level in FF publications such as the website or annual report. Upon making a donation to FF, the donor will be prompted to select their anonymity preference, thus determining their preference to be featured in such publications. 
  • We will collect payment information, billing address, and other information necessary to process a donation or event registration.

Tax Information

How can I determine if a particular organization is tax-exempt and eligible to receive tax-deductible contributions?

Publication 78 provides a partial listing of organizations that have been recognized by the IRS as eligible to receive tax-deductible contributions. For information on other organizations that have been recognized by the IRS as tax-exempt organizations, you may call IRS Customer Service at 877-829-5500. You can also contact us through any of the other methods described in Publication 557.

A contributor can also check an organization’s exemption letter, which states the Code section that describes the organization and whether contributions made to the organization are deductible.

The IRS sometimes recognizes a group of organizations as tax-exempt if they are affiliated with a central organization. This avoids the need for each of the organizations to apply for exemption individually. For more information, see Publication 4573, Group Exemptions. Subordinate organizations exempt under group rulings are not separately listed in Publication 78; see Eligible Donees Generally Not Listed in Publication 78.
