Sergeant Sullivan Fund
10 Years of Helping Veterans Struggling to Breathe
The Sergeant Sullivan Fund is named for Marine Sergeant Thomas Joseph Sullivan, who died from deployment-related illness at the age of 30. Tom left for Iraq in 2004 in perfect health. Over four years of service, he developed asthma, sleep apnea, heart disease and other conditions. He died in 2009, leaving behind a wife and a then 3-year-old daughter.
On December 22, 2015, the anniversary of his birthday, his parents, Peter and Jeanne Sullivan, established a fund at National Jewish Health to help find answers and healing for other veterans experiencing similar symptoms.
The Sergeant Sullivan Fund supports the Center of Excellence for Deployment-Related Lung Disease at National Jewish Health, which is leading life-saving research and providing care for men and women returning from military service overseas who are struggling to breathe.
Join us in supporting these returning heroes. Your donation will help accelerate the pace of discovery to solve the mysteries of deployment-related lung disease.
National Jewish Health will send you an email confirming your gift, along with periodic emails about your impact. You can unsubscribe anytime.
