Dear ,

We’re happy to announce that we are accepting cryptocurrency donations on our donate page! It’s taken a little more time to get approved and set up as a non profit, but now we’ll be able receive donations via BitPay, and we will be looking to expand the types of cryptocurrencies we accept going forward. We know this is something quite a few of our supporters have asked for and mentioned, so it’s great to offer this to those in our community who have taken an interest.

This month we also have a Commentarium article from a new contributor we are happy to welcome, Dr. Chirag Raval, Ph.D, Biomedical Engineering, M.S., Biomedical Engineering, B.ChE, Chemical Engineering. You can read more about him here! In this new piece Dr. Raval leverages his expertise on the vascular endothelium, detailing how this particular part of the anatomy in the foreskin plays a crucial role in proper blood flow, reproductive function, and resilience.

In May we had 25 new people start a recurring donation, which added up to over $600 in total for the month! One thing we always emphasize is how monthly donations help give us an idea of what we will typically bring in and to plan out our projects and research. So, if there’s someone you know who might be interested in contributing, share with them how meaningful the work is to you and how they can sign up with our donor rewards program.

For May Foregen’s supporters helped to raise a total of $15,511 combined!  The donations from the past month bring us to a total of $749,805 over Foregen’s history.  Thanks again to all of you who have made this possible!

Best,

Tyler J. Drozd
