The mission of The Kimberly Coffey Foundation is to educate the public and healthcare professionals about bacterial meningitis (meningococcal disease), including the symptoms of the disease and the importance of prevention with two types of vaccine.
The Foundation was founded by Patti Wukovits, a registered nurse whose daughter died in 2012 from meningococcemia, type B.
Their vision is a world without meningococcal disease.
