Canadian Association for Glycogen Storage Disease
The Canadian Organization for Glycogen Storage Disease (CanadianAGSD) was created to help Canadian patients and their families affected with this rare disease.
Our purposes include: providing individuals affected with GSD and their families with access to information about the disease, its consequences and potential therapies; supporting research which contributes to the development of diagnostic tests and therapies (in Canada); and educating the health care community and the public about GSD; . (All of our purposes can be found in the Overview section).
Your support is both needed and appreciated. Our Board of Directors and Officers are volunteers. Canadian AGSD is an official Canadian non profit that has charity status with Revenue Canada.

Glycogen Storage Disease (Explained)
