An incredible night for FSHD thanks to Russell and the East Brunswick High School Boys Volleyball Team!

A positive and enthusiastic event for the FSH Society was held last night! A big thank you to Russell Caratenuto, his coach and team for spreading more awareness about the importance of FSHD. The school not only embraced Russell and his efforts, but wants to make the FSHD Fundraiser an annual event!

The special surprise of the night was actor Max Adler, who thanked Russell, the team, and school through a heartfelt video (see below). The crowd of students went wild and were touched by his generous words. Students tweeted their appreciation!

The event was just as meaningful to Max, who wrote:
“Wow! How very moving and inspiring and heartwarming that is to read and to see! Can’t thank you enough for including me in this wonderful opportunity and exposing me to the story and allowing me to be a part of it and a part of this young man’s journey and his story. Means the world!”

Thank you Russell, Coach Gregory Rutz and the East Brunswick High School Boys Volleyball Team for hosting a spectacular event! We send gratitude and well wishes to all of the participants and donors.
