The
Spondylitis Association Of America (SAA) is a non-profit organization
that was the first and remains the largest resource for people affected
by spondylitis. Through their efforts, they help advance education,
research and treatment for ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and related
diseases. More than 85,000 people per month visit SAA's interactive
website to access over 1,700 pages of up-to-date content for information
and support. For 30 years SAA has dedicated all of its resources to
help improve the lives of people coping with spondylitis.
"This
is a very personal benefit for me as my wife, Naomi, suffers from
ankylosing spondylitis (AS).", says Lazlo, the founder of
BlowUpRadio.com and the organizer of Banding Together, "I have seen the
debilitating effects of this disease and the chronic pain and discomfort
it causes. This benefit is the least I can do to help my wife, and over
a million others who suffer from AS."
"I am very excited that
this year in association with ThePenguinRocks.com , and
40FootHoleStudio.com , we can turn this into a real virtual festival
with three stages of continual live performances all weekend."
The complete schedule will be announced in early October.
