How To Volunteer
Black-Tie Charity Ball and Race for the Cure
CSF hosts the Black-Tie Charity Ball in New York and the Race for the Cure Arlington Fundraiser in Illinois and we need your help to make each event a success. Please consider contributing items to the silent auctions. Some items that sell well at auctions include gift baskets, trips, sports memorabilia, gift certificates and artwork. If you'd like to sit on either the Charity Ball or Race for the Cure silent auction/raffle committees, please contact agrosz@CSFinfo.org. You do not have to attend either event in order to help out.

CSF Community Outreach
You can host Community Awareness Programs and Community Fundraising Events in your local area, in connection with the CSF Community Outreach, to spread awareness of Chiari malformation and syringomyelia
At the small and informal Community Awareness Program (CAP), you invite your friends, family and others who are interested to learn about CM and SM and about our organization. Our goal is to reach beyond the current CSF membership to raise awareness and educate as any people as possible.
At the larger, more formal Community Fundraising Events (CFE), attendees will join representatives from CSF as they share their commitment to finding a cure for CM and SM. This powerful event will highlight cutting edge research, the human impact of CM and SM, and the vision for CSF's sustainable future, while attendees will have the opportunity to make a donation, if they choose to.
If you are interested in becoming involved in the CSF Community Outreach Program, please contact cpoznik@CSFinfo.org.
