About
The MHE Research Foundation is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization for the support of researchers, families and physicians dealing with (MHE) Multiple Hereditary Exostoses (MO) Multiple Osteochondroma a rare genetic bone disease. Two moms whose paths crossed while desperately seeking answers for their sons, Vincent & Robert, both suffering from MHE, was the beginning of something great! It was then, in 2006, that The MHE Research Foundation was founded by Susan & Craig Eaton and Sarah Ziegler. We have become the #1 site for Research, Education, Advocacy, and Clinical Information in regards to MHE. And most importantly, HOPE. We are happy to say that all people on the board of directors and all volunteers donate their time and services and there are no salaries paid. All money raised goes directly towards research, conference expenses, and expenses incurred by the foundation to continue on our mission. Thank you for your support!
