Huntington's Association of South Africa
What is the Huntington's Association of South Africa (HASA)?
HASA is the Huntington's Association of South Africa, founded and registered by Michael Howard (Director) in 2004. HASA was originally created to raise funds for Huntington's Disease (HD) sufferers and their families by
(A) Establishing and managing an information centre and
(B) Funding relevant research and clinical trials towards finding a cure.
Michael's wife, Gina Howard, was diagnosed with HD which led Michael to start the charity. Sadly Gina passed away at the age of 42 after a heroic battle with the illness. HASA has continued to operate in her memory.
