The Sturge-Weber Foundation (SWF) was founded by Kirk and Karen Ball. They began searching for answers after their daughter, Kaelin, was diagnosed with Sturge-Weber syndrome at birth. The SWF was incorporated in the USA in 1987 as an International 501(c)(3) non-profit organization for patients, parents, professionals, and others concerned with Sturge-Weber syndrome (SWS). In 1992, the mission was expanded to also support and serve individuals with capillary vascular birthmarks, Klippel-Trenaunay (KT), and Port-Wine Birthmarks.
This year the SWF chose our theme to be Unite. Why?
1. Together when we UNITE we have a bigger voice.
2. Together when we UNITE our workload gets lighter.
3. Together when we UNITE we learn more and achieve greater results.
4. The most important why is...
We are stronger because we are UNITED!
Unite with us to have a heart for Sturge-Weber syndrome. Thank you!
