The Arthritis Foundation at 60
John H. Klippel, M.D.
President and CEO Arthritis Foundation
The start of the new year brings more excitement than usual for all of us at the Arthritis Foundation. The Foundation will celebrate its 60 anniversary throughout the year - 60 years of providing service to people living with arthritis.
To celebrate the occasion, we are proud to launch our Power of 60 campaign. The campaign will be incorporated into national, regional and community initiatives and projects during the year. The campaign will help raise awareness of the seriousness of arthritis and the Arthritis Foundation’s position as the leading voluntary health agency that supports arthritis research, public health and public policy initiatives.
Over the years, the Arthritis Foundation has been honored to partner with many outstanding organizations in an effort to improve lives of people with arthritis. The National Health Council has been a long standing and very key partner, which has allowed us to join together with other voluntary health agencies and make progress on our educational, legislative and research goals in the fight against this disease that affects millions of Americans.
All of us at the Arthritis Foundation sincerely appreciate your continued support and look forward to many more years of serving the growing needs of people living with arthritis.
