research.
3)
Financial support for programs
to educate medical professionals, adults and children

Background...
The
Chain of Love Foundation was created by Stephen and Kimberly Niggeman
(parents of a daughter with Turner Syndrome) to support nonprofit medical
research and charitable activities dealing with Turner Syndrome and related
medical disorders.
Since their daughter was first diagnosed, the Niggemans have worked to
increase awareness of Turner Syndrome and to create a network of families
and patients impacted by this medical condition. Kim voices her
determination to advocate on behalf of those affected by this disorder and
Steve concurs. “It is a logical next step for us to establish the Turner
Syndrome Foundation with the hopes of finding the medical means to mitigate
the impact of this tragic disease.”
