How You Can Help

The SCID Initiative is a dedicated fund sponsored by the Immune Deficiency Foundation. Created with goal of supporting SCID specific programs including education, awareness, diagnosis, newborn screening, and the search for a cure, the SCID Initiative is directed by an oversight committee comprised of community members with specialized interest and knowledge specific to SCID.

No matter what reason brought you to this website to find information on SCID, I ask that you make a donation to support the SCID Initiative. No amount is too small when the need is so great. Your donation can make the difference that saves the life of a child.

The SCID Initiative has a new partner, Cayley The Musical Fairy. http://www.cayleythemusicalfairy.com. Cayley is the main character in a musical DVD fairytale that teaches children about the power of their thoughts. It’s a 15 minute DVD story with original music and illustrations, designed for children ages 3 and up. Cayley’s daily life is full of music and happiness until she encounters a mean stranger. Find out how Cayley learns that positive thinking creates positive emotions.

For each DVD sold, Cayley and her creator will donate $2.00 to the SCID Initiative. Be sure to select The SCID Initiative during check-out! This DVD makes a wonderful gift for a child and a wonderful gift to The SCID Initiative.

Thanks to Cayley and her creator Tracy!
