C.U.R.E. Ride for LHON

Jeremy strives to raise awareness of LHON, and along with the help of his friends, they have created the C.U.R.E. (Cycling Under Reduced Eyesight) Ride, an annual fundraising bike ride that has raised over $350,000 for LHON research. The ride has taken place 11 times and it's a great way to raise funds and awareness of the rare genetic disorder that caused Jeremy to lose his sight. He hopes that the funds will help doctors find a treatment or cure for LHON so others don't have to go through the traumatic experience of rapid vision loss like he did.
