Help Jumpin' for Jazz make a difference in the fight to find a cure for Friedreich's ataxia. Join us for a fun filled afternoon of live music, a silent auction, and some great food. Save the date now and reserve your table at The Jazz Kitchen on Sunday, October 13, 2024 featuring Rob Dixon, Sandy Williams, and Preston Fox.
Jumpin’ for Jazz has a two-fold mission: to find the cure for Friedreich’s Ataxia and its devastating complications through the support and advancement of research; and to actively serve the 5,000-6,000 young people in the United States affected by Friedreich’s Ataxia — a rare, untreatable and incurable disease inherited at birth.
Even with intensive care, Friedreich’s Ataxia becomes a deadly disorder that destroys nerves, impairs motor skills (including the ability to walk), leads to heart complications, and loss of speech. Most Friedreich’s Ataxia victims do not live past their 35th birthday.
