Walk Strong to Cure JM - New York

Team Brandon

Brandon was diagnosed with JDM at just 2 years old. He is 8 now and has yet to reach remission. We take things day by day and even though we are so grateful for available treatments, the treatments themselves have caused an array of physical and emotional issues over the years. We need a cure so Brandon and all these other kids have better lives! 


On October 6th, 2019 we are participating in a Walk Strong to Cure JM in Bayport Long Island.  Registration begins at 9am and the walk festivities are 10am-12pm. All proceeds benefit Cure JM Foundation, a non-profit dedicated to finding a cure for Juvenile Myositis, a life-threatening disease which causes the body’s own immune system to attack healthy cells and tissues. It can affect virtually any system of the body, the heart, lungs, skin, muscles, and more.  And there is no cure....YET!

But with support from friends and family like you, we’re getting closer to better treatments and a cure.

With this continued great support from families and friends we were able to fund research at 20 prestigious research institutions, helping advance JM research at an unprecedented pace!

Your gift now will keep that momentum going. Every donation goes straight to Cure JM, and since inception over 90% of all funds raised go directly to research.

Join the team and fight against JM/JDM today!
