Sharper Cleaning is a proud sponsor of The DEBRA New Zealand Trust.
The DEBRA New Zealand Trust, formerly DEBRA NZ (The Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa Research Association of New Zealand) is an organization dedicated to the improvement in the quality of life for all people with EB and their families.
With EB being such a rare condition fundraising is not easy. We are a small voluntary charitable trust with very limited personnel and resources.
DEBRA New Zealand consists of families whose lives are affected by EB with the support of a group of Trustees and Medical advisors.
