The Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America (AAFA) is a national patient advocacy organization founded in 1953 that works to save lives and reduce the burden of asthma and allergic diseases through support, education, advocacy, and research.
AAFA typically supports public health and patient advocacy policies related to asthma and allergy research funding, disease prevention and management, health equity, access to care and education, environmental and air quality protections, and improved federal programs and standards affecting people with asthma and allergies.
AAFA is primarily funded by individual donations, government and foundation grants, corporate sponsorships, licensing fees, and legacy giving.
