My Story…

I'm running a virtual half marathon in support of kids across Canada living with juvenile idiopathic arthritis. Jace was diagnosed with JIA last year at the age of 4. This awful disease hasn't slowed down our sweet, energetic boy! At his first appointment with his rheumatologist (which happened to also be his first day of kindergarten) he asked him if he was allowed to learn how to skateboard, eventhough at the time, he needed to be carried from his bedroom to the kitchen for breakfast in the mornings 💔. He has put many miles on his skateboard, scooter and bike since then and our hope is that he can continue to do all the things he loves to do! Help me, raise funds to support the 24,000 Canadian kids like Jace with JIA and other rheumatic diseases.

Description

Cassie + Friends Society is an organization 100% focused on transforming the lives of kids and families affected by Juvenile Arthritis and other rheumatic diseases. In 2019, our team broke a new record with over 350 runners raising an incredible $360,000 in support of a pain-free future for kids.

Join us on Team Cassie + Friends as we virtually run/walk to raise awareness and funds for JA research, education, equipment and support.

100% of the funds raised by Team Cassie + Friends go to our mission of transforming kids and families lives through research, awareness, connection and support. More specifically, your participation will go towards our annual Family Days, Teen Groups, school resources, equipment cupboards/family funds, advocacy and research.

In collaboration with our Charity Challenge Team in Vancouver and nationwide participants, our goal is to collectively raise $240,000.
