Campaign idea: Ben is leaping 300 feet from a crane

Ben is preparing to leap 300 feet from a crane for his four-year-old son Ralph, who lives with a rare, progressive condition.

This story

Ben's four-year-old son Ralph has a rare genetic mutation linked to Alexander disease, a progressive neurological condition with no cure. Ralph had seizures before his diagnosis, has developmental delays, and only began walking within the last 18 months. Because the condition is life-limiting, Ben is taking on a 300-foot bungee jump to raise funds for Alex, The Leukodystrophy Charity.
