This foundation is not currently a working foundation but rather part of a group project, please follow @TeamFOA so we can spread awareness
This project has started as a mock grant proposal and has formed into a twitter campaign with the goal of creating awareness of this disease
The goal of this project was to spread information about Onchocerciasis or as it is more commonly referred to, River Blindness
@TeamFOA was started by students at Hofstra University as part of a class project.
