Thank you for your support with Ellie's Quest for a Cure 5K Fun Run on Oct. 1st, 2023, on the third annual Wolfam Syndrome Global Awareness Day! It was a huge success and together we raised more than $15,000! 100% of these donations go toward research.
"Thank you for your help - I can't do this alone!" Hope to see you next year!

Welcome to the Ellie White Foundation For Rare Genetic Disorders


Meet Ellie White . She is far wiser than her years may lead you to believe. Ellie is a beacon of hope. She strives to help raise awareness for her terminal disease, Wolfram Syndrome. Wolfram Syndrome causes blindness, hearing loss, and eventually it affects the brain stem, causing respiratory failure at an early age. With no current cure, the life expectancy of a patient is typically less than 30 years.

Learn more about Ellie and how you can .
