CHICAGO, Sept. 6, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Face the Future Foundation’s (FFF) Board of Directors will join UI Health Craniofacial Center’s medical staff, allied health professionals and others for the center’s 70th anniversary celebration. For over two decades, Face the Future Foundation has been a staunch supporter and partner of the craniofacial center which provides the highest possible multidisciplinary care to infants, children and adults born with facial differences, and treats other more complex craniofacial conditions for reconstructive, corrective or functional therapy. At the Foundation’s annual meeting, President Rob Grant presented a check for $300,000 to the center and said, “On behalf of the board of directors, we are delighted to make this gift to help fund center initiatives and continue to increase awareness for children with facial differences. We look forward to an even greater year of fundraising.” Center Director Dr. Mimis Cohen accepted the check and said, “We would like to thank everyone involved who helped raise money for the care and treatment our patients. These funds will greatly benefit our work.” Dr. Cohen outlined how the gift will be used. Most funds will benefit direct patient care including coverage of denied insurance claims. Other funds will support the center’s innovative 3D Printing Lab, founded by FFF. The lab assists with ongoing and future research projects and is also used for training students and residents. Other foundation initiatives include the Adrienne L. Green Scholarship and is open to all current and former patients.
