I'm completing my challenge for CP research!

In May of 2024, I'll be aiming for my fastest half-marathon ever, just before my 40th birthday. As extra motivation, I’m raising funds and awareness for Cerebral Palsy Alliance Research Foundation (CPARF) to move cerebral palsy research and disability innovation forward.

Cerebral palsy (CP) is the most common lifelong physical disability in the world, affecting 18 million people of all ages, with 33 babies diagnosed with CP every day in the US.

Even though it’s so common, CP doesn’t get the attention or funding it deserves. Your generosity will change that.

Any contribution you make will make a difference. Your gift will support:

• Studies focused on unlocking movement for people with CP — from holding their head up for the first time to taking steps in ways they never have before.  
• Technology that makes it easier for people with CP to grasp and grip items they need.
• Research into the chronic pain that affects 14.5 million people with CP.
• Innovation that makes it possible for people with CP to access and control their personal technology with voice commands, facial expressions, body gestures, and more.

Please help me reach my giving goal. Together, we change lives and move CP research forward.

Thanks so much for your support!
