Why I’m doing Ks for Kids

This August, we’re taking on the Ks for Kids challenge - walking or running to raise funds for Children’s Medical Research Institute, supporting scientists who are working today to find cures for tomorrow.

A cause close to my heart. I’m doing it for our incredible Oscar, who lives with Angelman syndrome — a rare genetic condition that primarily affects the nervous system. His weeks are filled with therapy sessions and medical appointments, but he never fails to give us a smile and chuckle to show us he’s thriving. Oscar is cuddly, cheeky and so clever. He teaches us to slow down and enjoy the small things. 

Every step we take is for Oscar and the thousand of other amazing kids living with a genetic disorder. Any donation will help keep labs running, research advancing, and hope alive for kids who need it most!
