Opera Mariposa
Thanks to generous event sponsors and the talent and giving hearts of sisters Jacqueline and Stephanie Ko, both of whom live with ME, the MEFM Society of BC has been the grateful recipient of over $90,000 in eight years — funds that are already making a difference in the lives of thousands of patients and their families throughout the province.
For more information, see Opera Mariposa.

Research Funding
The MEFM Society was also pleased to announce the successful funding of two research projects aiming to supply neuroimaging tools to help patients living with myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME), also known as chronic fatigue syndrome. Both research awards are funded and supported by BC SUPPORT Unit Fraser Centre, and represent a total investment of $40,000. For more information, see our related news article.
