Organiser's description
Welcome back to the Eye Love Logan and Zoe 5k. We are so thankful for all the years of support for this cause.
The last year has been an emotional rollercoaster for our family. We originally had two companies racing against each other to get a clinical trial started. We felt such hope. We were going to Pennsylvania once a year and Michigan every 6 months for the pre clinical study/enrollment.
As you know from last year we found out that the company in Pennsylvania lost its funding due to investors pulling out. Because of that, we decided to do the 8th Annual Eye Love Logan and Zoe again last minute last year. Thanks to all your support we raised over 50K. We have now signed contracts with the company to become partial owners of the current research and donated 2 million of our raised money to keep things moving. This will keep the animal studies going and start the FDA approval process. While that is exciting it means that our account is empty and we need to fill it back up or find another investor to then move into clinical trial which costs a few more million.
We also found out a month ago that the Michigan study we were going to bi-annually is no longer being funded by Jenssen Pharmaceuticals so our trips were cancelled. Miera is trying to find another investor to keep the ball rolling but chances are not high in the current economy.
We hate that we keep asking you all for help but you have always shown up for us. We are honored and humbled by you all. Thank you for the love.
PLEASE HELP US GET TO THE FINISH LINE!
Come run, walk, bid or just play with us at the Westminster Promenade Terrace in Westminster, Colorado. If you live in another state, please run with us virtually. We have a Facebook page at eyeloveloganandzoe5k where we would love to see your smiling faces running.
