PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

Dr. Daniel Furst, MD.   


I am honored to be your Interim President for 2023 and I look forward to serving the Foundation. 


I would like to extend a special THANK YOU to my predecessor, Peggy Hickman, for her outstanding, inspiring, and tireless leadership throughout the past 3 years.  I also want to thank all our donors because our achievement would not have been possible without their continued support and dedication to our mission. Please also join me in welcoming our new VP Laura Fuhrman. 


I'm proud of our successes over the past few years and I look forward to our year ahead, we will continue to expand and meet the needs of all those scleroderma communities needing our support.


I know many of you, but for those I have not met, let me share with you the Board’s and my priorities going forward.  Our number one priority is to engage our community to become more involved with the Foundation and to empower them to live better lives and thrive while living with scleroderma.


All the Foundation's work is focused on our patients, and we are always open to feedback on how we can better serve you. Please feel free to reach out to me, or our staff if you have ideas or would like to get involved.


Best Regards,
Daniel Furst, MD
Interim President
