On behalf of the entire mitochondrial disease community, a huge "thank you" to @malachi_moore13 for using his platform as an NFL player to raise awareness for mitochondrial disease and the important work being done @UMDF. Henrietta would be proud- I'm sure your mother is.

[New York Jets @nyjets]

"I think it's our duty to give back to the community and bring awareness to things that are close to us"

Malachi Moore is representing @UMDF Sunday in honor of his friend, Henrietta, for My Cause My Cleats
