Our mission is to improve the life of everyone affected by CMT, and, with your help, the CMTA funds research, educates doctors and patients, and promotes public awareness of CMT.

Donate now and, thanks to the 2008-2009 $350,000 CMTA Board Challenge, the CMTA Board of Directors will match your contribution, dollar for dollar, up to that amount.
