A never before seen photo of Pearl Jam frontman Eddie Vedder in 1990 wearing a cowboy hat and showing off his muscular physique has been unearthed by PearlJamOnline.
Pearl Jam’s official website recently posted:
Today is Rare Disease Day.
Join Eddie and Jill Vedder in finding a cure for Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB) through the EB Research Partnership.
Individuals with EB lack a critical protein that binds the layers of skin together. Without this protein, the skin tears apart, blisters and sheers off, leading to severe pain, disfigurement, and wounds that may never heal. There is currently no cure.
Help Eddie and Jill find a cure for EB by making a contribution to the EB Research Partnership or by donating the change from your credit or debit card purchases through the RoundUp App.
The band also announced earlier this year:
For the 4th year in a row, the Vitalogy Foundation has partnered with select Entercom radio stations to raise money for standout community-based non-profit organizations.
The money raised is based on an allocation of $2 per ticket from participating radio stations’ annual concert events.
We’re proud to report that in 2018, more than $106K was raised for 6 different non-profit organizations through 7 signature radio station events.
Since the inception of this partnership in 2015, over $495.9K has been raised. A HUGE thank you to the radio stations below and the incredible music lovers who attended these events!
