Houston, Take Steps to Find a Cure!
TAKE STEPS WALK CANCELLED DUE TO SEVERE WEATHER
Join over 600 expected registered participants for Houston's 6th year hosting the nation's only walk dedicated to finding a cure for digestive diseases. Take Steps for Crohn's & Colitis is a great way to bring together your friends, family, and community to fundraise and walk to spread awareness of what these diseases are, how many Americans are actually affected, and get closer to finding a CURE!
NEW PATIENTS often find forming a team is a helpful way to make talking about their disease to their family/social circles less overwhelming and isolating.
PATIENTS THAT HAVE BEEN MANAGING THEIR DISEASE over the years find forming a team and participating is a great platform for their loved ones, who often times feel unable to help during difficult flares or disease management, to roll their sleeves up and spread the word in the community, fundraise in their honor, and walk beside one another in a truly rewarding way!
The team's "captain" will work hand in hand with the local Walk Manager every step of the way from setting up the team's fundraising page, setting a fundraising goal, to coming up with email templates and personalized fundraising plans.
WALK DAY is a day to celebrate your team's accomplishments, interact with and meet the participating IBD community, and walk symbolically in the fight against Crohn's Disease and ulcerative colitis. There is a one hour festival prior to the start of the Walk with various tents with CCFA resources, local IBD professionals from within the community, local alternative therapy vendors, food, kid games and activities, live entertainment and much much more!
With your support we are committed to transforming the lives of those impacted by these diseases to one of a brighter future based on well-funded, cutting-edge scientific research. Make the decision now to join us and raise funds toward a future free from Crohn's and colitis!
Please contact local Walk Manager, Casey Harbich, at charbich@ccfa.org or 713.572.2232, with any and all questions.
