Werge & Corbin Law Group is honored to feature one of its truly incredible clients, Building the Cure Foundation. Building the Cure Foundation is a source of hope that is committed to advancing medical research and developing innovative solutions to not only combat but cure childhood Complex Congenital Heart Disease (CHD).
Desiree Vrionedes Freris, the President and Founder of Building the Cure Foundation, stands at the forefront of a transformative mission, stating "We are on the verge of having an actual cure for heart disease, the number one killer on Earth! Together with Dr. Doris Taylor, we want to ensure that people who need a heart can get one, and that the heart will be biologically their own!" The Foundation is dedicated to supporting those pushing the boundaries of medical research and bringing forth a new era of hope for those affected by CHD.
Central to their mission is the collaboration with researchers like Dr. Doris Taylor, a renowned figure in regenerative medicine, who is developing techniques to build transplantable human hearts that use the patient’s DNA. Together, they aim to revolutionize heart transplantation, and their approach (described in this video from CNN) seeks to overcome the challenges of organ rejection and the scarcity of donor organs, paving the way for a more sustainable and effective solution.
Building the Cure Foundation hosted The Cure Gala on October 28, 2023, which served as a symbol of hope in the battle against heart disease. Against an elegant backdrop, Desiree Freris shared a compelling vision, uniting attendees in a collective commitment to transform heart health. The gala, a celebration of progress and collaboration, unveiled groundbreaking initiatives and marked a pivotal moment in the journey toward a heart disease-free world.
