In October, through its Share the Plate offering, the congregation generously donated $3, 343 to the Open Medicine Foundation (OMF), which aims to revolutionize the way we understand and treat chronic complex multi-system diseases – including myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME), chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) and long COVID – by illuminating their mechanisms, accelerating effective treatments, and empowering personalized care. OMF funds global collaborative research that unlocks disease biology, delivers precise diagnostics, and advances treatments – giving every patient a pathway to care and hope. In November, all donations to OMF will be tripled, so UUCF’s donation will amount to $10,029.
