What is Sanfilippo Syndrome?

Sanfilippo Syndrome is a rare and debilitating condition that replaces laughter with pain and development with decline. Not only does it affect children, but parents face the heartbreaking reality that the illness cruelly steals away their child's potential.

Children with this devastating disease experience severe dementia, and their lives are tragically cut short. Sanfilippo relentlessly takes it away, especially the chance to grow, learn, and experience life to the fullest. It robs families of the promise of tomorrow for their children.

But there’s still hope. Time is a gift for children with Sanfilippo and their families.
