2002 brought the first genetic study for CDH in Boston, the first CHERUBS UK get-together and our first office! We moved onto “Wall Street” in Oxford, North Carolina when the charity outgrew the president’s house. We also helped with a television show and learned how to hold many new types of fundraisers. In one year, we added 400 more CDH families to our membership.
