“Kidz1st is one of the reasons I get out of bed in the morning,” Fisher explains. “It’s one of the things that keeps me going, not only for Ethan to able to find a cure for Fanconi anemia, but it’s all the children.”

For the past five years, Kidz1stFund has encouraged people to join the National Bone Marrow Registry at BeTheMatch.org, and has continued to raise awareness and funds toward research into this rare disease. For more information visit www.kidz1stfund.com
