Diamond Headache Clinic is pleased to support Miles for Migraine with an additional gift to the Chicago Walk/Run. We will DOUBLE all participant fundraising efforts, up to $5,000, which is in addition to the $5,000 we have already donated. Diamond Headache is aware of the significant challenge people with migraine and headache disease face as they battle this silent and stigmatized disease. It is our hope that people with migraine will realize the answer to finding a cure will need to come from patient advocates and their loved ones, who show up to patient participatory events such as Miles for Migraine Walk/Runs."
