When Becky Quick announced the CNBC Cures initiative, our effort to raise awareness of rare diseases and improve the lives of the 30 million people living with them, we knew the response would be great. We didn’t know it would be this big. The response was amazing, overwhelming and humbling.

Thank you for your interest – and for your great support for what we do. The mission of CNBC Cures is personal to me. Not just because I’ve spent the last few months helping launch this platform – but also because Becky’s story is mine too. Becky is my sister. Kaylie is my niece and my goddaughter. The fact that people are interested in this means a lot to both of us.

We’ve received hundreds of messages from groups asking how they can support Cures, and we’ve heard from many companies interested in sharing their rare disease efforts. But most importantly, we heard from you. Our inboxes have been flooded with emails from viewers and readers who want to share their stories… people who want to tell us how rare diseases have impacted their lives. In just the few days since we announced Cures, thousands have already signed up for the newsletter. We’ve also heard from people who simply want to help us raise awareness of rare diseases, ask where they can send donations, or donate their time and support to the effort.

We appreciate all of this. We are incredibly grateful for your interest in CNBC Cures. If you would like to share your story or discuss ways you can get involved with CNBC Cures, email us at cnbc.cures@cnbc.com.

Have the support ready. It’s proof that people care about rare diseases and that there is an audience for this type of content. We read your messages, respond when we can, and use them to inspire our stories.

Please tell your friends and family about CNBC Cures. Help us expand our coverage of rare diseases. Let’s show the world that these issues are important.
