Please help us find a cure!
Friends, colleagues and family –
?It’s that time of year again – late summer. For the past several years, members of the Germann family and our close friends have banded together to honor Ardy, my late wife, as we participate in the Annual?Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation’s Team for Cures 5K Walk/Run. I’ll skip the sentences that refer to the pandemic and unprecedented times, as we are all living the experience and know what that means. Instead, I’d like to focus on the great work that MMRF has done to make a difference for those who are diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma, their families, and their caregivers.?
Fundraising events like the Twin Cities 5K are more than matching t-shirts, family photos and the group walk – these events create funding pools that advance the treatment and survivability of Multiple Myeloma patients. Since their inception, MMRF events have raised money that:
·??????Raised over $500 Million for research
·??????Brought 15 new drug therapies through FDA Approval
·??????And most importantly –?tripled?patient survival rates.?
While the MMRF has made substantial progress, they still have much urgent research to do and cannot continue without your support. Please join me and my family in the fight against multiple myeloma and make a meaningful impact on the lives of patients and their families!
