Foundation Update

Happy New Year from the Foundation of the National Lipid Association! We are hard at work ensuring that 2016 is as much of a success as 2015.

Part of that success stems from the many fundraising events sponsored by the Foundation. We are pleased to announce the first Foundation event of the year, which will take place during the Spring Clinical Lipid Update (CLU) in San Diego March 18–20. You can join the foundation on the evening of March 19, for a murder mystery comedy dinner show, designed just for our group. This event will feature hors d’oeuvre, dinner, and dessert, and is within walking distance of the Omni Hotel. Buy your ticket now to ensure you don’t miss this opportunity to laugh, interact, and attempt to solve the mystery with your colleagues! For more information about the event, or to purchase tickets, visit lipid.org/springclu.

The Foundation is also wrapping up its collaboration with Sanofi US, Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc., and Cohn & Wolfe in their launching of an unbranded cholesterol awareness campaign, “Cholesterol Counts.” Stay tuned for updates on this very important initiative.

Make sure to keep your eye out for the next edition of the LipidSpin, which will feature the Foundation’s 2015 Annual Report.

As always, thank you for your continued support of the Foundation!
