McCord Foundation
The McCord Research Foundation is the philanthropic arm of McCord Research, supporting programs and causes close to the hearts of Jim and Darlene McCord.
The Foundation currently funds activities in three areas: athletics at the University of Iowa; research fellowships in the University of Iowa biosciences department; and independent labs working on researching the Buruli Ulcer.
The Foundation’s unique Pennies Have Power® program utilizes the fundraising skills of children helping children, by empowering gradeschoolers to raise money to help Ghanaian children suffering with the Buruli Ulcer.
