In 2009, MitoCanada was formed by a group of mitochondrial disease patients, family and friends, with support from dedicated medical professionals. MitoCanada exists to provide support and practical information that will help to improve the quality of life and sense of community for patients and their families.
MitoCanada provides support and awareness to Canadians affected by Mitochondrial Disease while also supporting the advancement of research in the field of Mitochondrial Disease.
MitoCanada hopes to connect Canadians who are directly and indirectly affected by mitochondrial disease. Our hope is to reach all patients, parents, caregivers and the medical community.
MitoCanada is raising awareness of this too often under-diagnosed, misdiagnosed and misunderstood, life altering disease among the medical profession and our society at large. We will actively seek both volunteer and financial support from within the mito community and are very aware of our need for individual and corporate sponsorship; all of which will be essential to bring about a wider understanding, new treatments and to reach the ultimate goal, a cure.
