Our Goal is to Raise Awareness and Funds for Research
The RhizoKids Ohio Chapter was established in 2008 by Mindy Lee, a devoted parent to Jake and Jordyn Cirner, who both live with RCDP Type 2 (Rhizomelic Chondrodysplasia Punctata). We are proud to operate as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, dedicated to raising awareness of RCDP and supporting vital research efforts.
Since its founding, the Ohio Chapter of RhizoKids has held annual fundraisers, collectively generating over $250,000 to date. These funds are crucial in supporting research aimed at finding a cure for this devastating and terminal condition.
We want to connect with our global family
