The Leiman Fund

The MAYDAY Fund is a New York-based organization dedicated to reducing the occurrence, severity, and impact of physical pain in humans. Through their grant-making initiatives, they focus on supporting projects that address research, knowledge networks, alternative therapies, and the translation of scientific findings into practical applications. Since 1993, the MAYDAY Fund has provided significant support to a select number of innovative projects each year, aiming to bridge the gap between knowledge and practice in pain care and treatment. While they have specific grant-making targets, they also remain open to unique opportunities that arise from time to time.Generated from the website
