Benefiting Cure JM in honor of Jesse!
We're supporting Cure JM (curejm.org) on this year's Giving Tuesday, November 30, 2021.
A lot has changed since our last fundraiser. Violet has changed their name to Jesse and would like to be called he/him, they/them. It’s a new world in so many ways. Jesse is medication free, and has been for just over a year now. We are grateful every day for this because any day it’s possible that his JM will flare. That’s the reality of living with a chronic disease—in remission or not, it is always there.
This holiday season, give children hope for a brighter future.
Your gift will be matched dollar-for-dollar by the Coffey Family Match!

Right now, there are no FDA-approved treatments or a cure, but we can change that!
With your support, Cure JM is leading the way in groundbreaking JM research. There are now more new treatments in development for JM than ever before.
We are optimistic that several of the drugs we have in the research pipeline will improve the lives of our children:
One drug is a possible steroid replacement—a new steroid with far fewer side effects.
Another has already shown improvement in muscle strength and skin conditions in JM patients.
This extraordinary progress is made possible by friends and family like you!
