The West Michigan Spina Bifida Association
Our focus...
helps families financially with medicals cost, camp fees and bikes. In 2005, we enabled five children to attend special summer camps and helped four families attend the Nationals Spina Bifida Conference.
is to support our members by helping individuals affected by Spina Bifida to lead rich and full lives and to become as independent as they possibly can.
Spina Bifida is the most frequently occurring, permanently disabling birth defect. It affects approximately one out of every 1,000 newborns in the United States. Spina Bifida is also the one birth defect we know the least about.
The West Michigan Spina Bifida Association currently serves approximately 60 individuals and their family members. Our members are mostly from the Grand Rapids area. However, we have members that travel from Wheeler, Holland, Lansing, Manistee and other localities in Michigan.
