The Mission Statement is : To raise awaeness and to ease financial burden, whether it be for education advancement or for medical reasons to anyone with Celiac Disease or Cerebral Palsy. (including rasing money for research on the behalf of both ailments)
Board Members include: Jessica Sutphin, Fred Hash, Brenda Muncy, Carol Trail, Dawn Scovil and Jay Aarons. It is 501c accredited and it is sponsored completely by the Real Deal Behind Kid Rock. All proceeds go to it! I've created this foundation for a multitude of reasons.
Why This Foundation Was Started:
The Celiac and CP United Foundation in Loving memory of Joe C was created because I was blown away and heart broken that he passed away from Celiac Disease. Joe C was a late band member that is still after his death very dear to Kid Rock and all those associated with him. With so much money and the top doctors, he died from an ailment that could have been overcome with a simple gluten-free diet. Note also that no medicine can cure the disease, only a change of diet will control it. If the diet was followed, he very well could still be alive. I found this out upon doing the research for my book.
Secondly, it is in loving memory of Joey because he still has a great piece of Bob's heart. Anyone on the 2011 cruise can testify to that because when he was questioned about who the "When It Rains" song was about, Bob said Joey as he got all choked up still after so many years later. I myself could not keep from crying the first several times I heard it, because deep down I knew that.
In conclusion, I published my book because of Bob's reaction. I have written it from the heart .....and not for money!
With that said, that's another reason that I have established this foundation. To sum it up essentially, it is for Bob(Kid Rock), for Joey and to inspire ALL! And that's why ALL the Real Deal book proceeds will go to this 501c acdcredited foundation. I foresee this foundation reaching more people than just those with Cerebral Palsy and Celiac Disease.
MOTTO: "Empowering a nation to take control of their own health".
