We are pleased to welcome Erica Matisz to the Hereditary Disease Foundation as our Director of Development. With almost two decades of professional fundraising experience, Erica brings a wealth of knowledge to our team. Erica spent most of her career raising funds in support of the cystic fibrosis community, which contributed to groundbreaking discoveries and innovative treatments for people living with cystic fibrosis. During her time with the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, Erica worked closely with families and people with CF, helping them to connect and support the community through volunteerism, advocacy, and fundraising activities. She also had the opportunity to partner with many clinicians and researchers and understands the incredible commitment they bring to their work.
Erica is passionate about making a meaningful difference for all affected by Huntington’s disease and is committed to contributing to the Hereditary Disease Foundation’s growth and success. Her experience in building and maintaining relationships with constituents within the cystic fibrosis community strategically aligns with our goals of expanding and strengthening our relationships with people with HD and families, caregivers, physicians, scientists, and the broader Huntington’s disease community. We are thrilled to welcome Erica to our team.
