DOUBLE THE IMPACT! BUSNA Board Will Match Donations Until 6/6/2025

Birdshot Uveitis Society of North America announces a 1-to-1 Match as part of its 5th Anniversary fundraising campaign! Members of its Board of Directors have personally pledged to match contributions from its community members… up to $9,150!

The volunteer-run nonprofit is currently engaged in a major effort to fund a Johns Hopkins birdshot-specific study. The goal of the study is to use artificial intelligence to collect and assess countless characteristics of scans and to develop a foundational AI model of birdshot uveitis. The investigation will compare tens of thousands of birdshot images to hundreds of thousands of other eye images and will relate its findings to clinical observations.  For more details, please read BUSNA’s May 8 blog post announcing the campaign.

The seven members of the board believe that results from the study will greatly impact diagnosis and treatment protocols for this autoimmune disease. This 1-to-1 Match offers a unique opportunity for all members of the birdshot community to not only make a positive difference in the vision of current and future birdshot patients, but to also increase the value of their donation.

Please visit BUSNA’s donation page and join the effort. Every contribution makes a difference!

Thank you!
