Jim Kelly was one of the most successful quarterbacks in NFL history. He led the Buffalo Bills to the Super Bowl four times and was voted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. But his world fell apart when his son, Hunter, was born with a rare genetic disorder. Hear how the influence of this little boy with very special needs played a role in restoring this family and bringing them to faith.
Hunter's Hope Foundation was established in 1997 by Jim and Jill Kelly, after their infant son, Hunter (February 14, 1997 , August 5, 2005) was diagnosed with Krabbe Leukodystrophy, an inherited fatal nervous system disease.
While Jim and Jill have been blessed with the opportunity to share Hunter's story and the hope of the Foundation named after their son all over the world , their greatest passion is to bring encouragement and hope to families in the midst of suffering.
The Foundation's mission and focus is threefold: to fund research necessary to treat and cure Krabbe Disease as well as other devastating leukodystrophies, increase newborn screening standards across the United States to obtain early detection and treatment for all treatable diseases, and ultimately Hunter's Hope exists to inspire all parents to thank God for their children.
Jill Kelly's greatest passion is to bring encouragement and hope to families in the midst of suffering.
