The grants were made possible by people within both communities who contributed directly or raised funds on behalf of the organizations. The HCU Network America Grants are also funded by the Hempling Foundation for Homocystinuria Research, established in memory of Judy and Susie Hempling, two young girls from Buffalo, NY, whose lives were cut short by HCU in the 1970s. Funding from the William R. Hummel Homocystinuria Research Fund, established by a family member in honor of Will Hummel, a young man with HCU in Pennsylvania, supported the 2018 grant project. The Cobalamin C grant awarded in 2022 was also supported by funding from cblC Onlus in Italy and the Organic Acidemia Association in the US. The Newborn Screening Grant in 2022 was not recommended as part of the global grants process but rather was supported by the Board of HCU Network America and reviewed by a Board Member and Medical Advisor.<p style="font-size:16px;font-style:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;text-decoration:none;box-sizing:border-box;margin:0px;caret-color:rgb(74, 74, 74);color:rgb(74, 74, 74);font-family:Nunito;text-align:left;-webkit-tap-highlight-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);-webkit-text-size-adjust:100%;line-height:1.5"> <p style="font-size:16px;font-style:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;text-decoration:none;box-sizing:border-box;margin:0px;caret-color:rgb(74, 74, 74);color:rgb(74, 74, 74);font-family:Nunito;text-align:left;-webkit-tap-highlight-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);-webkit-text-size-adjust:100%;line-height:1.5">The HCU Networks extend a warm thanks to our Scientific Advisory Board for generously giving their time and expertise to review the Research Grant Applications.
