Hidradenitis Suppurativa Foundation

Dedicated to improving the quality of life for individuals and families affected by Hidradenitis Suppurativa

The Hidradenitis Suppurativa Foundation, Inc. (HSF) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit public benefit corporation dedicated to improving the quality of life and quality of care for individuals and families affected by Hidradenitis Suppurativa. Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) is an inflammatory skin disease that affects an estimated 1% of the population. The HSF was founded in 2005 to foster and encourage worldwide research by developing and supporting an interdisciplinary family of scientists and physicians devoted to studying the molecular and cellular basis of HS, in order to develop and deliver more effective forms of treatment and preventative measures for those with this common, debilitating, and eminently chronic disease.

In the "About Us" Section, you will find detailed information about our Board of Directors as well as our Medical & Scientific Advisory Board. We also provide financial information, Annual Reports, Articles of Incorporation and other founding documents to assist the public in making sound giving decisions.

The HSF actively seeks donations to help support our general operations and put HS research on the fast track. Your financial support helps us maintain and build our ever-growing research database which is an invaluable tool for patients, doctors, and researchers. Your gift (no matter the size) will help us lay the foundation for future funding through government and institutional organizations. And your donations will also help fund symposiums where medical experts from around the world can meet to discover the cause, evidence-based treatments, and potential cures for HS.
