Disability Activist Creates Funds 4 Spina bifida


"FUNDS 4 SPINA BIFIDA", A Petition Urging Congress To Increase Funding Towards Spina Bifida Research, Education & Programs.

Online PR News – 27-September-2010 – Funds 4 Spina bifida was created by Disability activist & American Poet Robert M. Hensel in order to help raise awareness to this disabling birth defect. Right now, there are 166,000 People living in the United States with this condition, and without the proper education and funding these numbers could become much higher.

Spina bifida occurs within the first 28 days of pregnancy, even before a Woman may know shes pregnant. That is why every Woman of childbearing age should educate themselves about the importance of taking folic acid. Link to article
