Now in its third decade, the Chip Miller Amyloidosis Foundation is proud to share that $160,000 will be gifted to five organizations.  This includes $35,000 to the Mayo Clinic, $35,000 to the Amyloidosis Research Consortium (ARC), $35,000 to Amyloidosis Support Groups, $30,000 to the Amyloidosis Foundation, and $25,000 to Penn Medicine.

CMAF is also earmarking an additional $10,000 to invest in the future of the automotive hobby.  These funds will go directly to the Chip Miller Memorial Scholarship Fund, where each recipient will receive $1,000 to support their pursuit of a career in the automotive industry.

“My father was my best friend and mentor,” said CMAF President Lance Miller.  “Watching him lose his life to this terrible disease (Amyloidosis) was horrifying for my family and me,” continued Miller.  “We knew he’d prefer his life celebrated rather than mourned, and the foundation carries his name proudly.  We know the donations made are making him smile from above,” added Miller.  “Most of all, I’d like to thank the board members and all the supporters for making 2025 a major success for the CMAF.  As my father would often say, “Life is Good!”
