Twenty years ago, Cure JM co-founders Tom and Shari Hume set up the Foundation’s first-ever DIY fundraiser to seed important research funding. What was the fundraiser of choice? Considering the couple had young children, a lemonade stand was the perfect fit to launch a rare disease nonprofit during humble beginnings.
Fast forward 20 years and $23 million invested in juvenile myositis research later, we have come full circle, paying homage to our early DIY roots. In 2023, we are bringing the lemonade stand back!
We’re inviting families to join us between now and October 3rd to cap off a great 20th year with their own lemonade stands. This is a great opportunity for anyone in the family to join the fight in a fun way.
