Chris and MSI Press are happy to announce that they are collaborating with the U.S. Pain Foundation on a promotion to raise awareness and resources for the chronic pain community. The U.S. Pain Foundation is a 501(c)(3) organization that empowers, educates, connects, and advocates for people living with chronic conditions that cause pain. Chronic pain affects nearly 50 million Americans, is the leading cause of long-term disability, and costs approximately $635 billion EACH YEAR in medical treatments, disability payments, and lost productivity.

 

Chris has been struggling with hip/sciatic pain for over a decade and is a regular donor to the U.S. Pain Foundation. “There aren’t too many organizations out there that do what they do,” says Chris “Given that September is Chronic Pain Awareness Month, it seemed like a good time to try to raise funds together.”

 

Starting today, MSI Press will be offering a 25% discount on all copies of Chris’ memoir, Nothing So Broken through their webstore, using the code PAIN25. In addition, Chris will donate any royalties from books that are purchased with this code to the U.S. Pain Foundation.
