Our Annual Gutsy Walk is THIS Sunday, June 1st, 2025!
This year's walk means even more to us this year! As you may remember, Jennifer was supposed to be celebrating 5 years in Crohn's remission this June! Unfortunately, back in December her meds stopped working and it threw her into a major Colitis attack. Since then she has been fighting this harder than she has ever had to fight before!! This included months in the hospital, and many complications along the way!
She is hopeful she will be able to join us for the walk this year (even though she will have to do it from a wheelchair). We are grateful for all of the research that has been done because we finally think she has found a med that is helping her! We sincerely appreciate all of the love, prayers and support we've received from many of you this year! If this is coming as news to you, it's simply because we have been consumed with finding healing and haven't shared much of this publicly. We appreciate your ongoing support and hope you'll be able to walk, donate and share this with friends. Every dollar you donate is much appreciated and will fund transformational research, education and advocacy. |
Did you know that your employer might even match your donation for double the impact?
