“Running on ECMO” is created in honor of Eliza, whose body ran on ECMO for 11 days during her 42 day NICU stay. Without the technology and staff provided by CHOA, Eliza would not be alive and able to attend this event.  

Eliza’s mom, Kim, is an active and eager member of a parental advisory board for ECMO research with Children’s Hospital. Your participation and/or donation to “Running on ECMO” will directly benefit CHOA and their ability to provide outstanding care to patients like Eliza, as well as continue to research technology like ECMO and further improve its efficacy. 

Thank you for helping us reach our team fundraising goal in support of the organization that gave us Eliza’s life. Your contribution is greatly appreciated.
