May is Hyperemesis Gravidarum (HG)* Awareness Month, and the HER Foundation is celebrating 25 years of progress as we aim to support mothers, improve treatment for this serious condition, and eradicate HG.
25 years of progress
We’re celebrating HG Progress: the powerful strides we’ve made in understanding, treating, and supporting those facing hyperemesis gravidarum. From expanding access to HG-informed care and launching new global research collaborations to strengthening our advocacy impact and growing community support networks, we are seeing real change.
Progress is happening, and it’s just the beginning.
We can’t do it without you – This year marks 25 years of progress and hope, thanks to our supporters. We’re aiming to raise $25,000 this month to supercharge our impact. Join us by contributing at hyperemesis.org/donate.
“The adverse health consequences for mother and child, as well as the costs of healthcare and lost productivity affect families, the community, and the nation. These patients and their children deserve excellent care and a chance at a healthy future.” ~ Kimber MacGibbon, RN, MS
