My Mission for Collagen VI Research

The Penn Medicine Orphan Disease Center hosts the Million Dollar Bike Ride to raise money for research in rare diseases and I'm excited to participate in the 12th annual ride! Please consider donating to our team and being a part of transformative rare disease research.

In 2025, your donation will directly benefit research for a Collagen VI grant through Cure CMD. The first $25,000 raised is being matched by a generous Collagen VI family through Cure CMD, whose mission is to advance research toward treatments for the congenital muscular dystrophies and empower those living with CMD through engagement and support of our community. The difference we can make with your help is immeasurable. Thank you for your support!

Organizations participating in the 2025 Million Dollar Bike Ride will receive the funds raised by their team. Your donation plays a pivotal role, allowing organizations to not only support rare disease research, but make a direct impact on patients and families in their rare disease community. Thank you!

Million Dollar Bike Ride is coordinated by Penn Medicine's Orphan Disease Center. Funds from the 2025 Million Dollar Bike Ride are being distributed to teams through partnership with rare-disease nonprofit, Uplifting Athletes.
