    In Seek of State Representatives for CHERUBS!!!

    CHERUBS is the world's first, oldest, and largest CDH non-profit organization. CHERUBS was created to make sure that no family endures Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia without support or accurate information. Our Board of Directors and Parent Advisory Board includes CDH parents, grandparents, survivors, nurses, doctors and the world's top CDH researchers. CHERUBS is run solely by volunteers and donations.

    Would you like to help us make a difference? At this time, CHERUBS is seeking state representatives!! We need people like you to donate time, energy, and experience to help other families affected by CDH. As a state representative you would be contacting families in your state, finding hospital angels for hospitals within your state, planning a state get together for CDH families, offering support to others, and raising CDH awareness. This is just a few of the responsibilities of what a state representative does for CHERUBS. Our goal is to have two state representatives per state.

    No one knows what life is like with a child born with CDH like the other parents who have walked this path. Together, we will be able to help many CDH families, for no family should have to go down this path alone. Our volunteers say they feel rewarded many times over for the help they provide in making a difference in the lives of others.
