Hylie's Revolution |
 This
site is dedicated to the memory of Hylie Atkins, the little girl who could. The
cards were stacked against Hylie from the start: Anemia, Emphysema,
and chronic financial suffering. Yet Hylie survived because the
people around her cared so much that we swayed the rich and powerful
to take pity. And together, we thought we found a cure.
This is Hylie's Revolution: the power of a community with a common
cause. Imagine if every cause were treated with the care and passion
that saved Hylie's life. In such a world, anything would be possible.

What is at stake? |
Millions of children worldwide are considered healthy
at birth, yet their lives are in danger. Genetic disease can make
them die at an extremely young age, thanks to a deadly
cocktail of infection and negligence. Should innocent children
like our Hylie be forced to die for their genes? We say no.
Millions of children worldwide are denied medical care because
they cannot pay for costly treatments and life-saving drugs.
Should innocent children like our Hylie be forced to die because
they cannot pay? We say no. |
