Community support grants

Helping families pursue what matters to them

JdVS Uplift was created to provide financial support to people diagnosed with JdVS and their families. Previous grants ranged from $100–$500 USD and helped make meaningful academic, athletic, extracurricular, artistic, and other enrichment opportunities more accessible.

Support may also help caregivers address needs that are unique to their role. The program is available to members of the JdVS community in the United States and internationally.
