Partnering for Progress

 

Your osteosarcoma science fund with our support and infrastructure

By establishing an osteosarcoma science fund at the Osteosarcoma Institute, you can select the expertly-vetted research study or clinical trial that we have committed to fund and to which you would like to direct your fund. The OSI’s funding partnerships give osteosarcoma families a seat at the table next to expert physicians and research scientists who can interpret and guide them through the complex process of research funding. This opportunity allows families impacted by osteosarcoma to tangibly track a specific research project aiming for progress against the disease. Your name, or the name of your loved one, will be associated with the research project of your choice once the target goal has been met!

To date, eight Partnering for Progress funds have raised over $1.9 million for the OSI’s research. This milestone is a testament to the power of community collaboration and the dedication of families and supporters who are making a difference in the fight against osteosarcoma.

If you are interested in learning more about Partnering for Progress, please email giving@osinst.org and our Development Manager, Vanessa Peterson, will be in touch.
