DYNA's Dysautonomia Awareness Month Shirt Fundraiser

Dysautonomia is an umbrella medical term utilized for a group of complex conditions that are caused by a dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system (ANS). The ANS regulates all of the unconscious functions of the body, including the cardiovascular system, gastrointestinal system, metabolic system, and endocrine system. A dysfunction of the ANS can cause debilitating symptoms and may pose significant challenges for effective medical treatment.  The symptoms of dysautonomia conditions are usually “invisible” to the untrained eye. The manifestations are occurring internally, and although the symptoms are verified medically they are often not visible on the outside. This shirt, designed and voted on by DYNA's Youth Ambassadors, focuses on the invisible aspects of dysautonomia and other invisible illnesses.  

Since 1999, The Dysautonomia Youth Network of America (DYNA) has been invaluable in spreading awareness and accurate info about dysautonomia conditions while passionately supporting those affected. DYNA is currently the only 501(c) (3) non-profit specifically existing for youth and young adults with dysautonomia.  DYNA's mission is to foster awareness, support, and a better understanding of dyautonomia conditions in the community as well as to encourage compassionate care, efficient diagnosis, reliable treatment, and research of dysautonomia conditions.  In it's 15 years of existence, DYNA has been successfully carrying out that mission, touching and changing the lives of thousands worldwide.

DYNA fully depends on individual donations and member-led fundraisers in order to exist.  Please consider purchasing a shirt and/or making a donation so that DYNA’s can continue to network medical professionals, advance the research and treatment of dysautonomia conditions, influentially advocate on behalf of all dysautonomia patients, serve patients and to inspire youth onset/young adult patients to continue to pursue their life’s goals and desires.
