The Cure JM National Leadership Council is the organization that leads the charge to raise funds and advance Cure JM’s mission in communities across the country.
The council is made up of volunteers from around the world who are getting involved to make a future free from juvenile myositis. Volunteers include families, friends, and members of the community.
The National Leadership Council is made up of 5 committees, each with a different fundraising mission. Committees include: Walk Strong committee, Giving Tuesday Holiday Challenge committee, Rare Experiences Auction committee, Family Fundraisers committee, and Chapter committee.
The Officers and Steering Committee plans the work of the National Leadership Committee.
The full National Leadership Council meets quarterly, and committees may choose to meet more often. For more information, please contact Shannon Malloy at shannon.malloy@curejm.org.
