As a mother myself, I know all too well that our children typically have a limited window for growth, but a lifetime to thrive. 1 in 3,500 children in the United States are affected by growth hormone disorders or GHD. Novo Nordisk has been dedicated to improving the lives of people living with GHD for more than 30 years – and that commitment continues as we recognize Children’s Growth Awareness Week, Sept. 19-25.

This week, we are proud to join the Magic Foundation, a non-profit supporting families of children living with GHD, to raise awareness of the wide variety of chronic and/or critical disorders, syndromes and diseases that affect a child's growth.

Join us in raising awareness about children’s growth. Visit The MAGIC Foundation’s Growth Awareness Week website for more information about what you can do to help.
