Our Cause
MED13L Syndrome is a rare neurodevelopmental disorder that affects children’s growth, intellectual development, and overall health. Importantly, MED13L is also recognized as one of the top genes associated with autism. By supporting this event, you’re contributing to vital research not only for MED13L Syndrome but also for a broader range of rare pediatric neurodevelopmental diseases. The MED13L Foundation is collaborating with other similar disorders, pooling resources and knowledge to drive impactful research and accelerate the development of treatments that can benefit countless children in need.
The Road Full of Promise Project
This initiative was born from Katie and Mike’s journey with their son, Collin, who was diagnosed with
MED13L Syndrome. A good friend once said, there is nothing else that can meet us in our heartbreak,
elevate our spirits, move us to laughter, and let us dream the way music can. Inspired by this idea, and a
combination of lyrics from some of our favorite artists, Road Full of Promise was born. Music meets us
on this road and helps keep us moving forward. We invite you to join us on this journey of hope.
What to Expect
- Live music by The Album Covers, featuring songs inspired by some of the organizers favorite artists
- A vibrant community of supporters, researchers, and families united in purpose
- An opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of children facing rare disease
Why Your Presence Matters
With the help of the MED13L Foundation and other rare disorder communities, we’ve identified drugs that improve seizures and communication. But we need your help to keep moving forward. Securing major funding is a challenge, so we rely on fundraisers like this one.
Every step on this Road Full of Promise brings us closer to understanding, treating, and curing rare pediatric diseases. Your support fuels life-changing research.
Join us on this journey. Together, we can create a brighter future for children with rare diseases.
Because love is as deep as the road is long, let’s make this journey count.
Tickets available HERE. All proceeds directly support research into rare pediatric diseases through the
MED13L Foundation.
