Go Green

Go green! Think CDG!©

is a CDG community campaign that encourages people to use green on May 16, to show support for children and adults affected with Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation (CDG).

​Wear green, decorate the house with green lights, and put green ribbons and balloons on trees. Turn the town green for our CDG children and adults. Get creative. Put May 16 on the map HERE

​Let’s work together to spread the word about CDG, increasing research efforts and pushing us closer to more treatments and cures!

Go Green!

Why green?

Green is an emotionally positive color, giving us the ability to love and nurture ourselves and others unconditionally. This is what CDG families do every day with strength and determination!
 

“The garden of love is green without limit and yields many fruits other than sorrow or joy. Love is beyond either condition: without spring, without autumn, it is always fresh.”
by Rumi​
