At RunWithLiam Rare Ministry, we believe that no family should face the challenges of a rare disorder alone. We are a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting families with children who have rare and often misunderstood medical conditions. Our mission is to provide hope, resources, and a community of care where families can find strength, connection, and guidance.
Our Story
RunWithLiam Rare Ministry was founded by the McDonald familiy who knows firsthand the struggles of navigating life with a child affected by a rare disorder. We understand the uncertainty, the countless medical appointments, and the emotional toll that can come with seeking answers and care. What began as a small group of parents sharing experiences has grown into a supportive network working to empower families across Tennessee.
What We Do
Support Services – We offer peer-to-peer connections, support groups, and individualized assistance to help families cope with the daily challenges of rare disorders.
Resources & Advocacy – We connect families with reliable medical information, educational tools, and community resources, while advocating for increased awareness and better healthcare access.
Community Building – Through events, workshops, and family gatherings, we create safe spaces where children and families can build friendships and feel less isolated.
Awareness & Education – We work with schools, healthcare providers, and the public to raise awareness about rare disorders and the unique needs of families living with them.
Our Vision
We envision a world where every child with a rare disorder can thrive, and every family has the support, knowledge, and community they need.
