OUR BOARD

Our Board Members Actively Educate About FA.


The RAFFA Board

Our board is made up of a dedicated mix of talented individuals. Each member has come into contact with Friedreich's ataxia in their personal lives and have committed themselves to furthering the awareness of the disease and supporting individuals with disabilities. The RAFFA leadership team positions are all non-compensated. All proceeds go directly back into the programs RAFFA sponsors.
