Harmony Biosciences Announces Launch Of Patients At The Heart Grant Program

PLYMOUTH MEETING, PA, June 17, 2019 — Harmony Biosciences, LLC (Harmony) today announced the launch of the first Patients at the Heart Grant, a competitive grant opportunity to fund innovative patient-centric programs for the narcolepsy community. As part of Harmony’s overall commitment to supporting the comprehensive needs of people living with narcolepsy, Harmony has committed an initial $50,000 to this program.

“Keeping patients at the heart of everything we do is our main focus,” said Cate McCanless, Harmony’s Vice President, External Affairs. “We recognize there is an unmet need for support within the narcolepsy community and are hopeful we receive innovative ideas from organizations that allow us to support people living with narcolepsy and their families.”

Charitable grant applications should focus on one or more of the following categories:

  • Programs that support people with narcolepsy living a fuller, more engaged life
  • Programs that address the psychosocial challenges faced by people with narcolepsy and their loved ones
  • Programs that improve the overall support of the family members of people with narcolepsy
  • Programs focused on the education of people with narcolepsy, including topics on diagnosis and navigating challenging environments with narcolepsy
