A Donation Today Is Hope for Tomorrow
Living with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease is a journey that impacts not only those diagnosed but also their families, friends, and supporters. While it brings challenges, it also reveals incredible strength, resilience, and hope. At CMTA, we are committed to empowering the entire CMT community to live their fullest lives while advancing research that will lead to treatments and, ultimately, a cure.
Your support is the driving force behind this mission. It empowers individuals and families with the resources, tools, and hope they need to navigate life with CMT. Together, we can make a meaningful impact, proving that while CMT is part of our lives, it will never define us.
Join us in rewriting the story for the CMT community. Your generosity fuels progress, transforms lives, and brings us closer to a world without CMT. Donate today and be part of this life-changing mission. Together, we can make a difference.

"CMT was something we never heard of before. When we found out about Kaelyn’s diagnosis her mother and I researched everything we could about CMT. CMTA was the best organization we found for information and support. We wanted to support the CMTA community and research any way we could. We know we have a lot more to learn and look forward to supporting the community any way we can."
