On May 30, 2025, Club Sur in Seattle erupted with energy, passion, and purpose as the FAM177A1 Research Fund hosted its 2nd Annual FAM JAM—an unforgettable night of community, hope, and unstoppable momentum toward a cure.
This wasn’t just a party… it was a movement.
A room full of believers, united for a brighter future for families affected by FAM177A1 Disorder, fueled by groundbreaking research and the elite global team driving progress.
This vibrant community pushes the science forward so that every new child that's diagnosed with FAM Disorder is that much closer to a life-changing treatment. The movement started with Charlotte and Cooper, but the impact of our work ripples out to families across the globe. Every dollar raised brings us closer to life-changing treatments—and a cure.
The night soared with:
• Inspiring speeches and a surprise appearance by Charlotte & Cooper.
• An exciting auction where bids turned directly into hope
• MIMX electrified the room with nonstop dancing, joy, and yes—more cowbell!
Together, we danced. Together, we donated. Together, we will cure FAM Disorder!
Thanks to our generous sponsors, every dollar raised goes to FAM177A1 research!
