Williams Syndrome Charitable Foundation USA Inc

There are roughly 30,000 people in the United States living with Williams Syndrome. Williams Syndrome is characterized by the deletion of approximately 27 genes on the 7th chromosome. Those with Williams experience significant cardiovascular problems and many other health related problems, developmental delays, and learning disabilities. In 2009 The Conrod family began hosting the George Cup to raise awareness and funding for Williams medical research and education. Now run by the Williams Syndrome Charitable Foundation, the occasional Golf event and Dinner is how the Organization raises the bulk of the funds to provide this support.
