Support “Cooling off for CHM” for the summer of 2018Please join the family’s fundraiser “Cooling off for CHM” and spread the word about CHM (Choroideremia).

This summer EJ’s family is running a special summer fundraiser to raise money to cure CHM! It’s called Cooling Off for CHM! CHM has no cure or treatment at the moment, but we want to that to change!

12 Marathons in 12 States in 2012 

12 Marathons in 2012

EJ earned over $150,000 for the CRF during 2012 running all twelve Marathons.

EJ is not a runner.  He had never really exercised until the marathon last year which took a lot out of him.  But…

He got some folks attention, so he thought “how can I reach more people?” because there still isn’t a cure or even a treatment.

So, to help Dr. Bennett reach her goal of 3 million I settled upon a crazy idea. Read more about it here: Choroideremia

THE CHALLENGE: EJ will be running 12 marathons, in 12 different states, in 12 months, and he’ll be running them blindfolded, *with an experienced guide.

THE GOAL: To raise $12,000 per race.  That’s $144,000 all told and all of it will be going directly to the foundation.

THE FAVOR: Anything you can do to help is greatly appreciated, whether it’s a donation, sponsoring EJ for the marathons or simply spreading the word.  Every little bit helps.
