It has been a couple of months since we launched our brand new website, and if you haven’t had a chance to explore it yet, consider this your friendly reminder to pop in and take a look around!
Whether you have been with us since the early days or only recently discovered The Homer Hack, our new digital home is the perfect place to learn, connect and get involved with everything we are doing to fund critical research into rare scaffolding gene variants.
So, What’s New?
A Fresh, User-Friendly Design
We have given our online home a glow-up — cleaner, easier to navigate and packed with useful information about the work we are doing and the research you are helping fund.
Clear Info on the HOMER Gene
Not sure what the Homer gene is? We’ve broken it down in plain English. You will find clear explanations about rare scaffolding gene variants and why they matter so much in conditions like autism, schizophrenia, epilepsy and more.
Meet the Researchers
We are shining a spotlight on the brilliant scientists we fund. Learn about their work, their goals and how your support helps move the science forward.
Events, Grants & Updates
From fun-filled fundraisers like the 16 Degrees Swim Festival and our Spring Ladies Luncheon to grant announcements and community stories, everything you need to stay in the loop is now in one place.
Ways to Get Involved
Whether you want to donate, volunteer, attend an event or simply spread the word, you will find easy ways to support The Homer Hack and help us fund the future of medical research.
Why We Made the Change
As we have grown, so has our vision, and we needed a website that truly reflected who we are today.
We are not just a charity. We are a movement. A community of researchers, parents, families and advocates determined to change what’s possible for people living with rare neurological gene variants.
And now we have the platform to tell that story better than ever.
Take a Look Around!
We would love for you to explore the new site and let us know what you think. It’s mobile-friendly, easy to browse and full of reasons to feel hopeful and inspired.
