Meningitis

What is it and why are we supporting research into it?

On 28 September 2001, a friend of World of Kitsch was diagnosed with the first symptoms of Meningitis B-Strain. Just 20 hours later, Jon McMillan was dead.

Jon was a very healthy person who was a keen American football player. Even though the disease was caught early, Jon could not be saved.

We do not want anyone else to go through the loss we and Jon's family suffered, therefore we felt it a fitting tribute to donate all our profits into Meningitis research.

If you would like to know more about the disease and up-to-the-minute information, we recommend you look at the following sites:

Meningitis may be curable if caught early...and with more research further deaths may be preventable.
