ME|FM Society of BC

Great group of people striving to help others live a more healthy and fulfilling life! Kudos to the team!

The ME|FM Society of BC is an amazing organization that truly cares about the well-being of people with ME and FM. They provide a supportive space for people to connect and learn, and are making a real difference in the lives of those with these illnesses. Their commitment to raising awareness and educating healthcare professionals is making a real difference, and I'm proud to support them.

The ME/FM Society of BC really provides me with hope and empowerment. They have multiple programs and initiatives to help people struggling with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis and Fibromyalgia to live a better life, and champion our voices in the many unmet needs we have for basic ADL's Activities of Daily Living.. They strive to make a better today and tomorrow for us.. And for myself, it helps feeling heard, seen, and championed... Thank you.. Huge gratitude. I also get a feeling of empowerment and belonging, by volunteering with their My MLA and M.E Initiative.. Helping to build bridges of awareness, compassion, understanding and advocacy... This initiative is changing the understanding of living with chronic illness, and the many supports we need to live well with dignity and quality of life. The ME/FM Society of BC also runs events and support groups, as well as articles and blogs, etc.. Which really helps with the constant isolation. Even for those of us able to interface well in the community, it is still isolating to be unseen with these invisible illnesses... So a huge thank you to the board of directors, and volunteers that are helping to move things forward. If you are a philanthropist, or know someone who is... Or simply wish to be of help, please consider donating annually as this organization desperately needs to grow allowing for more advocacy, more training in the community, and more hands on resources for folks in the autoimmune community... Please don't forget us after the pandemic... Remember that word immunocompromised... Because we live that, and we need support for folks living with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis and other related autoimmune illnesses. We desperately need government support, and research... As these diseases impact thousands of people province wide... And globally, the research is lagging. God bless the ME/FM SOCIETY of BC.
