I am so grateful to my friends that have joined us for the walk or donated to our very personal cause. Please remember that no amount can be too big or too small. 

I am joining thousands of people across the country for the Walk to End Lupus Now®. I hope that you will join me either by lacing up your sneakers and joing Team Haas and I walk at our new location, The Philadelphia Navy Yard, on Saturday, November 9,or by donating to my fundraising page.

You can make a difference by donating to help remember those we lost to this debilitating disease, (Cindy Haas, my sister) and those Lupus Warriors who are currently battling lupus. Fundraising helps support the Foundation's efforts to improve the quality of life for all people affected by lupus!  A generous contribution of $25 or $55 can make a definite impact. What’s more, if your employer offers a Matching Gift Program to employees, you may be able to double your contribution with just a little bit of paperwork. Trust me, it’s worth the effort! Every single dollar counts. Help Team Haas continue to be one of the highest fundraising teams!!!!

While lupus can strike anyone at any time, 90% of people living with lupus are women. Women of color are at especially high risk.Lupus is hard to diagnose, but the Lupus Foundation of America is working to make life easier and more comfortable for the estimated 1.5 million people living with lupus in the United States.  Together, we can solve the cruel mystery of lupus. Thank you for your generosity!
