About Arthritis Foundation:
The Arthritis Foundation is the only national not-for-profit

not-for-profit contributor to arthritis research in the world, funding
more than $380 million in research grants since 1948. Celebrating its
60th anniversary this year, the foundation helps people take control of
arthritis by providing public health education; pursuing public policy
and legislation; and conducting evidence-based programs to improve the
quality of life for those living with arthritis.
The New York Chapter of the Arthritis Foundation was created to improve
the quality of life for people with arthritis throughout the five
