Cerebral Palsy Alliance Research Foundation (CPARF) is a nonprofit and a registered 501(c)(3) organization. 

CPARF funds US-based research to change what’s possible for people with cerebral palsy, implements proven science, and advances innovation to benefit all people with disabilities around the world.

The funds you raise through this grassroots community will help us fund cutting-edge medical research and technology innovation to make everyday life easier for people with CP and other disabilities.

All funds raised by participants are directed towards life-changing scientific advances for people with cerebral palsy and technology to make everyday life easier for people with CP and co-occurring disabilities. Some examples include chronic pain research, technology that unlocks movement for CP, and a device to make grasping and holding things – from a toothbrush to a pen to a smartphone – easier for people with CP and other disabilities.
