We also would like to take this opportunity to thank our champions of RheumPAC, who stepped up to the plate and matched a total of $99 for each donation from a previous donor and $262 for each first-time donor. This match allowed even the smallest contributions to have an enormous impact on advancing our advocacy efforts and helped RheumPAC raise more than $43,000 this November.
