Governor's proclamations are being received from around the country as April approaches. This year proclamations were requested in more than half the states. Each year we are able to navigate the application process in additional states to obtain as many Governor's proclamations as possible. This program to obtain official Governor's proclamations is a work in progress but we do not have to have an official proclamation in every state to proclaim Fabry Disease Awareness Month across the entire country. April 2013 Fabry Disease Awareness Month has also been proclaimed in Australia and is endorsed by the Fabry International Network to encourage other countries to proclaim April also.

We will provide additional information about various events and ways to celebrate during the month.

Sincerely, Jerry Walter
