Help Marian raise money

For participating in 2020 Scotiabank Vancouver Half-Marathon & 5K

My Story…

Six years ago I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease. It helped explained a lot of health issues that I’ve experienced most of my life: migraines, skin rashes, fatigue, osteoporosis, digestive discomfort and joint pain, all of which improved with a gluten free diet. The most difficult part of my life now is participating in social activities that either involve food or require eating food outside of my own home. The CCA has been working to improve laws governing labeling and handling of food products by wholesalers and retailers, and provides education and guidelines for hospitality and institutional food providers (think restaurants, cafés, hotels, airports, convention centres, schools and universities, hospitals and old age care facilities.) Please help the CCA create a safe, healthy, inclusive community for everyone!
