How You Can Give This Christmas

Donate to life-changing EoE research

Eosinophilic Oesophagitis (EoE) is a painful, lifelong condition that affects a child’s ability to eat, grow and thrive. HCRF's goal is to raise $30,000 by 30th August 2026 to fund a new research grant to help researchers develop better, less invasive monitoring and personalised therapies for children living with EoE.

Your donation helps bring comfort, relief and hope to children facing this terrible disease – children like Felix (read his story here).
