Running to Fight Huntington's Disease
Tax deductible
Hey everyone!
I have been training for the past several months to run the Baltimore Marathon on October 15th. Running has always made me feel so good, and I like to DO some good with it too. With this run, I am looking to honor my mom and loved ones, and raise funds for a cause that has impacted my family in many ways. Huntington's Disease (HD) isn't a very well-known disease, and I am hoping to help change that.
For those who don't know--Huntington's is a progressive degeneration of brain cells, impacting a person physically and mentally over time. While symptoms can vary, some people compare it to having a combination of ALS, Parkinson's & Alzheimer's, all at once. There currently is no cure for Huntington's.
My mom, my hero and rock-star, is someone living and persevering with Huntington's. All donations to this cause will go towards the Huntington's Disease Society of America to benefit those impacted by HD and fund research initiatives.
Thank you for considering any contribution to this cause that means so much to me. For more information about Huntington's Disease Society of America Inc. please visit: https://hdsa.org/
