Jared McGee's Reps for Rare Diseases 2019

As I take a step toward my NFL dream, I’d like to use this opportunity to give back. I have committed my performance at the Northwestern Pro Day to support Uplifting Athletes and its mission to inspire the Rare Disease Community with hope through the power of sport.

I believe its important to help others when you are in a position to do so. I learned from some of my college teammates how rare diseases affect people they love and it moved me to want to help. This past summer I participated in the Northwestern Chapter Lift For Life and I will never forget the way the Northwestern Football Community rallied support for this great cause.

Fans and supporters can pledge for each bench press rep I perform (my goal is 14) at the Northwestern Pro Day on March 12th.

Please join my team by making a pledge today!

About Uplifting Athletes

A nonprofit organization founded in 2007, Uplifting Athletes inspires the Rare Disease Community with hope through the power of sport. A rare disease is one that affects fewer than 200,000 Americans and typically lacks financial incentive to make and market new treatments. Uplifting Athletes fulfills its mission through a unique network of college football student-athlete led chapters, Uplifting Ambassadors and Team UA participants.

Since its inception, Uplifting Athletes has raised more than $4.5 million in support of the Rare Disease Community with a third of that, $1.5 million, given to fund rare disease research. To learn more about Uplifting Athletes visit www.upliftingathletes.org
