Fundraising Honor Roll

Please help us to help our daughter Meghan and 30 million Americans.

Our daughter Meghan has Primary Schlerosing Cholingitis. Although our family has been through some challenging times because of this rare, serious and chronic liver disease, we've also experienced some of our greatest blessings with a daughter who continually amazes us and a family filled with love.  The positive impact her strength, faith and grace has had on our lives and on the lives of others who are dealing with illness had been truly inspiring. We've been blessed by the support of family, friends, and community members like you who have offered their donations, support and words of encouragement, as well as by the courageous doctors who are promoting effective treatments for liver disease.

That is why I am  is participating in the Liver Life Challenge. The Liver Life Challenge is an endurance sport training program that helps people like me train for the 2013 Boston Marathon while supporting the mission of the American Liver Foundation. Training and fundraising wouldn't be possible without the support of my whole family and our wonderful friends. After 2 years of cheering my wife Tara on from the sidelines as she rose to the challenge of the Boston Marathon, I am ready to ask you to help keep the grace flowing and to say "Thank you!" for the blessings we've recieved. I also want to help ensure the good work that's being done to help our daughter Meghan continues long enough and goes deep enough to make a lasting impact for her and all those suffering from liver disease.

Every step I take and every dollar I raise will make a diference in the lives of more than 30 million Americans living with liver disease.

Did you know:

  • Liver cancer is one of the few primary cancers on the rise in the United States.
  • Approximately 5.4 million Americans are chronically infected with hepatitis B or hepatitis C. About 65% and 75% , respectively, are unaware that they are infected.
  • It is estimated that up to 25% of the U.S. population could have Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease--a condition that can lead to life-threatening damage.

By making a donation on my behalf, you will be helping the Foundation provide community-based education, research, support, and advocacy related to help prevent and treat liver disease. Together we can make a difference and it's as simple as helping me reach my fundraising goal.
