Mito Awareness Presentation- Southeastern LA Univ

A young adult with mitochondrial disease in our area, Andrew Gaupp, will be presenting at the Open Forum at the Union on Thursday of Mito Awareness Week during the lunch times. 11am-12:45. He and his family are setting up a table in the breezeway and giving out info during that time as well. They are also attempting to contact the nursing department to place info in their lounges. He has the Kappa Alpha fraternity adopting mito as their philanthropy this year. They worked the phones yesterday for MDA telethon at 2-4pm as part of "Andrew's family" and mentioned Mitochondrial Disease when they were interviewed.

Awesome job, Andrew!
