A Message From The Organizer

If you liked my last event you’ll love the next one at Blaze Pizza (180 Springtown way) Sunday, September 1st from 11am-9pm. RSVP at: https://www.groupraise.com/events/103857 The Crohn's & Colitis Foundation is a leading supporter and founder of medical research in Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis-collectively known as inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). We invest our dollars wisely, funding the best IBD research globally and implementing a peer-review process insuring that only the most promising and relevant grant applications are funded. With more than 1000 grants awarded, the foundation played a role in every major scientific breakthrough in IBD, from generating data leading to new therapies to the discovery of the first gene for Crohn's disease. The foundation supports Basic and Clinical research. Basic research studies the complex interactions between genes, bacteria, and the immune response in IBD. Foundation-sponsored research led to breakthrough discoveries in the role genetics and the human microbiome play in IBD onset and progression. We are establishing the largest research and information exchange to develop better treatments and cures. Only together can we find the cure, -William Barnes

Why We're Raising

Did you know that over 3 million Americans suffer from Crohn’s and ulcerative colitis? Many individuals with these diseases, jointly known as Inflammatory Bowel Disease or IBD, suffer in silence due to potential embarrassment and alienation. Today I am taking a stand! I will complete the Crohn and Colitis Foundation’s Team Challenge Hike to the Grand Canyon on October 4th-7th 2019 to raise funds and awareness for research leading to improved treatment options and cures for Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. Together, we can make a difference! I’ve promised to raise $5,000 for the Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation by September 23rd, 2019. I am motivated and I am committed, but can’t do it without your help! Support me by donating safely and securely by using the link at the bottom of this email or mail a check payable to the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation to: https://online.crohnscolitisfoundation.org/site/TR?px=3740815&fr_id=8275&pg=personal&NONCE_TOKEN=5AA05136F1F6E05465C8CBE846156D15 A minimum of 82 cents per dollar raised by the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation goes directly to research and patient support. No gift is too small (or large!) and your contribution is 100% tax deductible.

 Thanks in advance for your support! Sincerely, William Barnes
