    "Pearl Jam Boy" is using his rock star fame to give back Featured
    Written by Kaitlyn Connolly

    BAR HARBOR- The boy who got the experience of a lifetime is using his experience to donate to children who might not ever get the chance.
    Noah Keeley, also known as Pearl Jam boy, has taken his new found fame and decided to give back to the world, just like his favorite band. "We wanted to donate to one of PJ's charities, and we wanted to donate to this one because its such an insane disorder" said Noah.

    He decided to raise money and awareness for EB, or Epidermolysis Bullosa, a disease that effects the skin, which is the largest organ in the human body. The disease affects young children, causing blisters and open sores both in and outside of the body. Noah says that by helping this disease, "it can be kid to kid, pass on the wave".

    A video of a young boy named Mikey living with the disease is what inspired Noah to give back. You can watch the video here.

    Noah's is fundraising for the disease by pairing with Pearl Jams organization, and giving away two tickets to their show in August. He said he cant wait to share this experience with the winner, saying "The things Eddie speaks out about in his speeches during encores, its pretty amazing to be in that experience".

    Noah plans on being a rock star one day, and will continue to inspire the world in more ways then just his music, just like his favorite band. "Its not just the music, but the things they donate to. All the environmental causes" said Noah.

    You have 23 more days to win the Pearl Jam tickets, as well as a signed tambourine. All proceeds will go towards the EB foundation and finding a cure. To donate, here is Noah's website.

    You can also visit Pearl Jam's website for more information.

    10-Year-Old Noah Keeley From Maine, Paying Pearl Jam Love Forward [VIDEO]
    By Lori Voornas

    Remember Noah Keeley from Maine who was pulled up on stage at a Pearl Jam concert? He has taken that high and wants to spread it by helping make things better for kids affected with Epidermolysis Bullosa – EB.

    When Noah (needless to say a HUGE Pearl Jam fan) got to play ‘Sad‘ with the band – on stage…well, it changed his life. The feeling of love and goodness that he felt he wants to spread.

    He has decided to help a cause that is near and dear to Pearl Jam, raising money to fight Epidermolysis Bullosa – EB. EB is a very rare but horrible life threatening genetic skin disorder that affects kids from birth. First let’s recap…who’s this Noah kid? Check out this video.

    He has gotten his hands on some Pearl Jam tickets! Your donations will enter you in a raffle to win two (2) tickets to see Pearl Jam at sold-out Wrigley Field on Saturday night, August 20, 2016, $1,500 cash for travel expenses, and a tambourine played and signed by Eddie Vedder.

    $10 for one entry,
    25 for three entries, or
    $50 for seven entries.

    The contest ends on August 8th

    All to find a cure for EB. Now..that’s how ya pay it forward!
