More History
Hi I'm Conor Roddy, founder of Hansen’s Helping Hands which I set up in 2016 after my mom (who had lived in India) told me about how many children around the world still had leprosy even though it’s a totally curable disease.
Antibiotics and MDT (multi drug therapy) cure leprosy, but every year hundreds of thousands of people still contract the disease including many children who then don’t go to schools and still live in separate communities.
I set up the not-for-profit HANSENS HELPING HANDS because the medical name for leprosy is Hansen’s Disease. Because I didn’t have a 501C3 (a nonprofit business) I set up the site and asked people to donate to either the American Leprosy Missions in South Carolina, or the Turing Foundation in Amsterdam because they are both dedicated to eradicating leprosy.
Thanks!
Conor
