| About Scleroderma |
Scleroderma is pronounced, sklare-oh-derma, in English. |
| ISN Scleroderma Brochures. You may print and use our PDF brochures. Each brochure has a full donation section on the back panel, which even accepts credit card donations. |
| Scleroderma is an arthritis or autoimmune disease. As such, there are hundreds of symptoms and diseases caused by scleroderma, similar to it, or associated with it. We provide support and information for related ailments, so it is very appropriate to give to the ISN in memory of anyone who has suffered or cared about the conditions listed on our Medical or Symptoms pages, and we are an excellent choice for general donations to charity. |
