WHO WE ARE

A Bit of Background

Here at Ruler of Hope, we are driven to do our part in spreading the message of hope and joy to children fighting illnesses. We fundraise to provide financial support to ease the burden of medical expenses for the families of critically or chronically ill children. Our goal is to also generate revenue for research associated with the illnesses of the genetic mutation of the CSNK2B gene. This nonprofit organization is inspired by our own little fighter, Landrey.

OUR INSPIRATION

Our Ruler of Hope

Her smile captures the room. Her joy fills it. Her story inspires it.


Landrey is the first in the United States to be diagnosed with the condition of a rare gene mutation of the CSNK2B gene. She battles myoclonic epilepsy, intellectual disability, a congenital heart defect, and immunodeficiency. She spent the first 73 days of her life critically ill on life support enduring a major open heart surgery, surviving four codes. Until the age of four, Landrey was critically or acutely ill 40% of her life. She's battled through 15 hospitalizations.

PROVIDING SUPPORT

With our organization’s mission always in mind, we strive to raise financial support for families dealing with the hardships of critically or chronically ill children. We know first hand how difficult it is to care for a child who is battling illnesses in and out of the hospital. Dealing with the weight of financial burdens can make that compound. Our goal is to do our small part lifting that and proving hope and support to the families.

RESEARCH

Our goal is to promote great opportunities for those researching the illnesses associated with the rare gene mutation of the CSNK2B gene. Those illnesses include immune deficiency, epilepsy, intellectual disability and congenital heart defects.

THE COACH, HIS DAUGHTER AND THE FIGHT OF THEIR LIVES

June 9, 2019

CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. -- Landrey Eargle, her infectious smile every bit as broad as some of her father's Austin Peay offensive linemen, knows how to light up a room. 
It's not that she's really trying to. It just comes naturally to the little girl who wasn't even supposed to make it out of the hospital alive after being born six weeks premature via Caesarean section and then undergoing open heart surgery at 7 weeks old.

The second that Landrey Eargle enters a room there is a newfound, joyful glow that was not there mere moments ago. She is the second of three children for Kansas football's senior analyst for the offense Joshua Eargle and is the one that has changed the lives of the Eargles and countless others around the country.
