Description
My name is Edd Pedro and my daughter Kelsey was diagnosed with JRA (Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis) at the age of 3. Thanks to the miracle of modern medicine, her JRA is under control. As a result, we have been giving back to the Arthritis Foundation to help them fight for a cure for everyone with Arthritis. I hold an annual Edd Pedro’s Fight for a Cure Wiffle ball tournament in August at Slater Park in Pawtucket, Rhode Island 02861. This past year we had 50+ teams from 6 states, RI, MA, NH, CT, ME, PA.
Over the past 16 years, we have raised over $ 404,000 from this event. We have 3 divisions Adult, Youth, and Fun.
