Raising awareness for CMV and funding the research.
“In the United States, nearly one in three children is already infected with CMV by age five.”
-Center for Disease Control
Our mission is to create awareness and raise money for CMV research and those who are affected by it.
Support Carol & Tom Vereecke as they ride in 50 states in 5 years to raise CMV awareness and raise funds to support the mission of the National CMV Foundation.
Inspired by their granddaughter and the impact that her CMV diagnosis has had on their family, Carol & Tom have committed to turning their passion for bicycle riding into a labor of love and a mission to educate and empower those who have been affected by the same CMV diagnosis.
Join Carol & Tom on the 2nd leg of their journey while they ride in six states (Oklahoma, New Mexico, Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, and Arizona) in February of 2023. You can follow them on our blog and register to join them on their ride.

How Our Grandaughter Inspired Us To Take Action…
On June 26, 2020 our beautiful granddaughter, Brynn Rose, was born with a congenital CMV infection and spent 47 days in the NICU fighting. Brynn continues to courageously concur any challenge that comes in her way and works through her hearing loss and developmental delays on a daily basis.
