Heather Synder

"Research to do transplants better…research to have medication that can stop the progression of the disease…research to help find a cure. We need all of it, all of it has to come together as one.” – Heather S., pulmonary fibrosis activist and recipient of a double-lung transplant

You can honor a friend or relative, or celebrate the birthday of a lung disease survivor by donating to the American Thoracic Society. You may also honor the memory of a loved one or colleague.
