Thanks for visiting my fundraising page!

I plan to participate in the OI Foundation's Virtual National Unbreakable Spirit® Walk-n-Wheel on July 9, 2020 and I need your support! Unfortunately, due to the COVID Pandemic, the OI Foundation is unable to hold Walk-n-Wheel in person as in past years. However, the need still exists in order to continue 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.

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. Infants with OI are often born with multiple broken bones. In severe cases of OI, a cough can break an adult’s rib. 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®!

You can improve lives! To support the important work of the OI Foundation, 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. Then, please mail your check directly to me as the event participant so that I can turn it in to the 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!
