Through the Running for Rare® program, runners raise awareness for rare diseases while fundraising to contribute to NORD programs for undiagnosed patients. This special team is made up of passionate and committed individuals seeking to make a meaningful difference for the rare disease community. “NORD is thrilled to join the legion of amazing official charity partners for the TCS New York City Marathon. We are working constantly to advance the rare community, and we’re proud to be running on their behalf too,” said Peter Saltonstall, President and CEO, NORD. “The funds raised support undiagnosed patients, many of whom have been struggling to care for their health in the absence of an accurate diagnosis. Together as a community we can take action, raise money, and increase rare disease awareness to help patients get the answers and the care they need.”
