Richard Kruse's Medics on the March

07/27/2021 - 10/31/2021

I plan to participate in the OI Foundation's Medics on the March and I need your support!

During the weekend of May 2-3, 2020 I (along with 7 of my fellow medical professionals) will be taking on a 50-mile march along the Potomac River from Washington, DC to Frederick, MD in support and celebration of the OI Foundation's 50th anniversary.

50,000 people in the United States are affected by osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), a rare genetic disease that makes bones fragile and easily broken. A person living with OI may experience hundreds of painful fractures over a lifetime. Each person with OI is unique, with different fracture rates, a varied range of related health issues and his or her own path through life. Yet there is one thing every person living with OI has in common… an Unbreakable Spirit®!

Please help us to provide answers to families, fund research, and maintain a network of support groups for families dealing with the daily realities of OI by making a gift and even joining us for this fun event.

You can improve lives! To support the important work of the OI Foundation and help me reach my goal of raising $10,000, simply click on the Donate Now button at the top of this page.

If you prefer to mail in your donation: Make all checks payable to the OI Foundation.

Please give as much as you can! Will you also spread the word and help us generate a turnout for this walk-n-wheel event that will make a difference?

I truly appreciate your time, consideration and generosity!
