At The LAM Foundation, our mission guides every decision we make and every step we take alongside people living with LAM. This year, we refreshed our mission statement to more clearly reflect both who we are and who we aspire to be.

To catalyze new treatments—and ultimately a cure—for LAM by advancing research, supporting compassionate care, and amplifying the voice of women with rare diseases.

These words are more than a statement. They represent our purpose, our passion, and our promise to the LAM community. They affirm our commitment to scientific progress, to care that centers the whole person, and to ensuring that women living with rare diseases are heard, respected, and empowered.

Your Voice Matters

Our mission lives not only through research milestones and programs, but through the people who make up this community—patients, families, clinicians, researchers, donors, and advocates.

What does The LAM Foundation mean to you? We invite you to reflect, share your story, and add your voice to the mission we carry forward together.

Looking Ahead

As we look to the future, this refreshed mission will continue to guide our work, fueling new discoveries, strengthening compassionate care, and amplifying voices until better treatments and ultimately a cure are within reach.
