In February, Karl Traeger of Pennsylvania honored the memory of his cousin Jace, who had Progeria. Karl got his fraternity, Delta Chi, and sorority Alpha Sigma Tau to hold a Guitar Hero contest fundraiser, and also put a Coins to Cure© can in Ayers Drug Store in McKeesport. Karl and his college friends raised $350 for PRF - make some noise for Karl, Delta Chi, Alpha Sigma Tau, and Ayers Drug Store!
