The Prader-Willi Syndrome Association of South Africa [PWSA (SA)] functioned since its establishment in 1990 as a formal association with a full-fledged service to its members. As the distribution of a relatively small number of families was spreading over a larger geographical area, it become increasingly difficult to compose a committee of willing members to cover all the responsibilities of the association. At the same time the convenience of interaction by means of social media developed to such an extent that alternative ways of service to members delivery became possible. Consequently, after thorough consideration, it was decided to convert the association to a support organisation primarily based on interaction with interested parties by means of a dedicated web page and Facebook page.
