I'm excited to announce that I'll be participating in the Walk to End Lupus Now® along with thousands of others across the country. Whether you join me in lacing up your sneakers or support me through a donation to my fundraising page, your involvement can truly make a difference.
By contributing to help me reach my personal fundraising goal, you'll be supporting the Foundation's mission to enhance the quality of life for all those impacted by lupus. Even a modest donation of $25 or $55 can have a meaningful impact. Plus, if your employer offers a Matching Gift Program for employees, you might be able to double your contribution with minimal effort – it's a fantastic opportunity to maximize your support!
Every dollar counts in our collective efforts to combat lupus, so your generosity will be immensely appreciated. Together, we can make strides towards a brighter future for those affected by this condition. Thank you for considering joining me in this importan
Did you know?
Lupus, an autoimmune disease, remains enigmatic and often misunderstood. It manifests suddenly, varying greatly from person to person, and currently lacks known causes or a cure.
Its symptoms, which can be severe and unpredictable, have the potential to affect any organ or tissue in the body, ranging from the skin and joints to vital organs like the heart or kidneys.
While lupus can afflict anyone regardless of age or gender, it predominantly affects women, with 90% of lupus patients being female. Women of color, in particular, face a heightened risk.
Diagnosing lupus is challenging due to its complexity, yet the Lupus Foundation of America is tirelessly dedicated to improving the lives of the estimated 1.5 million individuals living with lupus in the United States.
Together, we can unravel the mysteries of lupus and provide solace and support to those affected. Your generosity and support are deeply appreciated as we strive to conquer this formidable challenge. Thank you for joining us in this crucial endeavor!
