Hunter James Kelly Research Institute
Judson's Legacy is committed to funding research for Krabbe and other leukodystrophy diseases, particularly by supporting the Hunter James Kelly Research Institute (HJKRI), a collaboration between the Univeristy of Buffalo and Hunter's Hope Foundation. HJKRI is commited to providing a multidisciplinary clinical and basic science approach to specifically research Krabbe disease and other leukodystrophies. This integrated method of research promises significant advancements toward prevention, treatment and more developed clinical care for Krabbe Kids and others.
Through The American Bible Challenge, Judson's Legacy was able to fund over $100,000 for myelin repair research at the HJKRI! |

"I show Jud's video all the time to doctors and researchers. It has such an incredible impact! I call the later onset form of Krabbe... Judson's disease. I wouldn’t be surprised if one day it is known as such." Dr. Patti Duffner |
What is a Myelin Repair Lab?
In leukodystophy diseases, the myelin sheath deteroriates, leading to heinous loss of ability. A Myelin Repair Lab focuses on research to restore function in the body by repairing the myelin in the brain. A Myelin Repair Lab also has far-reaching implications for many others who suffer as well, including those with Multiple Sclerosis and stroke victims.
Your donations help sustain the research of the Myelin Repair Lab being developed in Jud's honor while continuing the life-changing work of Judson's Legacy. Thank you for partnering with us!
