Change the Air Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded by a group of passionate indoor air quality advocates and professionals dedicated to creating a world where everyone lives a longer and healthier life by breathing safe indoor air.
The average American spends more than 90% of their time indoors breathing air that is potentially bad for their health. Many of these indoor pollutants are odorless, colorless, and invisible to the naked eye making them difficult to identify and fix.
Contrary to common perception, poor indoor air quality caused by mold, water damage and other indoor pollutants is responsible for a wide range of negative health effects beyond just allergic type systems including: respiratory symptoms, suppressed immune function, increased risk of infections, cancers, neurological problems, and developmental disorders.
What’s worse, it often takes people years to make the connection between their health and their home if they ever make it at all. That translates into years of painful and mismatched treatments. It’s lost childhoods. It’s missed work and job opportunities. It’s years of significant emotional and financial burden on already overwhelmed individuals and families.
Simply put, what’s in our indoor air matters to our health and overall well-being.
