2nd annual Hemophilia Walk & 5K Run Set for Saturday, October 1st

The Comstar Dukes are ready to hit the pavement again to raise money for the National Hemophilia Foundation during the 2nd annual Hemophilia Walk & 5K Run on Saturday, October 1st!

Our team is being formed in honor of Earl Punchard who died in 2008 and although he didn't have hemophilia, he generously supported the mission of the Delaware Valley Chapter of The National Hemophilia Foundation for more than three decades.

Earl was a loving husband and father and spent a good deal of his life looking for ways to make a difference in the lives of people, including those affected by hemophilia.

As the founder and principal of Comstar Supply, Inc., he built a successful company on the core values he demonstrated throughout his life, honesty, integrity, generosity and compassion. Still today, Comstar Supply, Inc is a leader in the communication and utility industries, carrying on Earl's commitment to customers, employees and the local community. We continue to hold Earl in our hearts for the wonderful person he was and how he touched each of our lives.

Please walk or run in memory of Earl on the "Comstar Dukes" team to support research, making the promise of a cure a reality for children in southeastern Pennsylvania with Hemophilia. Hemophilia is the most expensive chronic illness in the world to manage! You can help us make a difference!

Last year our team raised $4000.00 to support hemophilia research and we hope to exceed that amount this year! Help us reach our goal!
