About Cure MLD / The Calliope Joy Foundation

The Calliope Joy Foundation/Cal’s Cupcakes is a registered 501(c)(3) that raises funds to support research, improve care, and help families touched by leukodystrophy. We sell cupcakes to help kids with leukodystrophy. Leukodystrophy is a family of 50 degenerative, neurological disorders (including Tay-Sachs disease) that affects 1 in 7000 live births. We have raised more than $300,000 to fund research, support families and improve care. Our efforts led to the creation of the nation’s first Leukodystrophy Center of Excellence at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.
