Becoming a Coats' Crusader signifies stepping into a role of advocacy and support for patients battling Coats' Disease.

It begins with you!

As a Coats' Crusader, your generosity during this season of giving will directly help Coats’ patients. The Jack McGovern Coats’ Disease Foundation is the ONLY non-profit organization dedicated solely to Coats’ Disease. Your support will help us continue to expand resources to Coats’ patients and families, fund more research into improved treatments and a cure, and help us raise awareness around the world to enable earlier and accurate diagnoses, which is crucial to saving a Coats’ patient’s vision.

What does your gift do?
~ Your support will improve and expand resources such as the Mentor Program, Doctor Directory, Volunteer Network, and foster a sense of connection among the Coats’ community.

~ Your support will fund crucial research, including supporting Education Grants and Research Grants. In 2023, we funded $85,000 towards Coats’ Disease research and have partnered with Duke University, University of Minnesota Twin Cities, Macula Society, and Cleveland Clinic.
