Over the past decade, more than 59,000 PHELAN LUCKY shirts have found homes in 33 countries across the globe. This has not only significantly increased awareness for Phelan-McDermid syndrome but also generated over $852,000 in funds for the Phelan-McDermid Syndrome Foundation. Looking forward to the 2024 PHELAN LUCKY campaign, the ambitious target is to raise $150,000. Achieving this milestone would push PHELAN LUCKY’s total contributions past the remarkable $1 million mark.  Here’s how you can help get us there…

• HIGH PROFILE PEOPLE– We know that influential voices can bring much needed attention to our cause.  If you have any leads or contacts with a large social media following that would proudly wear a 2024 PHELAN LUCKY shirt and post to their social media sites during our 22-day campaign in January, contact me.

• SCHOOL SUPPORT– Hosting a PHELAN LUCKY Day in March is a fun way to foster compassion and educate students about the importance of diversity and inclusion.  Students can wear their shirts to celebrate St. Paddy’s while raising awareness for a deserving cause.  **Services hours available for student ambassadors who wish to lead this initiative**

• BUSINESS PARTNERS– Do you own or work for a business with a BIG heart that would consider a PHELAN LUCKY dress down day or a contribution to help get us to our goal?  I’d love to discuss a potential collaboration with your company.

The success of PHELAN LUCKY serves as a testament to the immense love and support from our extended #PHamily and I’m so excited to keep the momentum going. If you have any thoughts or recommendations, please reach out to Jen at jen@pmsf.org.
