We wanted to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude for the remarkable contributions to our volunteers at our SAPA-GP over the past year (Mar 2022 – April 2023). The hard work and dedication have not gone unnoticed, and we are truly grateful for everything that all the volunteers have done to make such big impacts on our communities.

With volunteers’ dedication and support, both our 2023 SAPA-GP Annual Conference and 2022 @Philly Cell and Gene Therapy Annual Conference were huge successes.  The enthusiasm and positive attitude, along with an eagerness to lend a hand wherever needed, truly made a difference.

We hope that the experience volunteering with SAPA-GP has been fulfilling and rewarding and that the continued support and commitment to our organization mean the world to us.
